[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 791669, member: 30007"] I've a couple of observations relating to this. I am currently using a sensor that is, ahem, not all that good. I put it in Thursday, started it yesterday and has consistently been 2mmol/l high over the past 24 hours. Had a low of 3.5 this morning that showed as 5.4 on the sensor. So while it's a bit rubbish for spot readings, I'm continuing to find that the trend info plus the levemir is keeping me very stable. Whilst I was applying the new sensor, it occurred to me why there is an hour start up on the sensor. I believe it is basically the amount of time Abbott feel is required for the sensor to stabilise. Many of us have been putting the sensor in 24hrs early for the same reason. [/QUOTE]
