[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2692447, member: 372717"] I can't answer most of the above but suggest taking enough fingerpricking strips so you can manage if libre fails on day 1. (From experience with failed dexcoms). As regards eating and drinking, just be aware that excessive alcohol can cause hypos (your liver is too busy processing the booze to help out with glycogen). I'd recommend having plenty of glucose with you for night time hypos. I hope you have a great holiday. [/QUOTE]
