[QUOTE="smidge, post: 661486, member: 29301"] Your level control is brilliant Robert. Although my overall control is excellent as measured by HbA1c, the devil really is in the detail. The Libre is showing that over the 3 nights I've worn it, the first night and last night my BG rose all night from around 3ish and was v high on waking but the middle night it fell at around 3ish and I had a secret hypo down into the 2s which recovered into the 4s by the time I woke up. This is perfect data to discuss with my consultant as he has never believed my overnight readings are just bloody random! I'm convinced the Levemir is at fault. In terms of accuracy, most of the time the Libre tracks consistently 1.2mmol higher than the Mobile, but that gap increases significantly at high levels. I think I would expect that at higher levels. Just need to find out which is more accurate the rest of the time. Overall I'm really happy with the insight I'm getting into what my BG is doing, but I'm not confident enough to stop testing or to base insulin doses on it. Smidge [/QUOTE]
