Hi All,
Have just started using the libre and sensors after watching comments about the device on this site for quite a few years. I’ve just become eligible for a free libre and sensors which was the main reason for delay, I was quite happy with my blood testing and using the same app for many years to calculate my doses.
However I read in all the details supplied with the Libre that if you carb count you should blood test and I don’t ever recall reading on this site of anyone doing this, everyone seemed to just talk about the sensor.
Does anyone just use the sensor reading to then calculate the required fast acting dose?
Cheers
