    Faulty Libre 2 Plus sensors?

    @Duchess4eva you should be contacting Abbott for each failure and they will send out a new one. My pharmacist would definitely not get involved in replacements.

    Insulin to carb ratio

    It is recommended as a Type one that you have access to a hospital team. Even if it is just being able to contact a DN who is working with diabetics all the time. Not one in a Gp surgery who sees all different types of patients. That is how I get anything altered. I ring or email and leave a...

    What’s everyone planning now that Levemir is going?

    One of the things with Tresiba is it doesn’t require as much rigidity on timings. My time in the morning has an alarm to remind me, but some times my life dictates earlier or later doses. Have often done it two hours before if going on a journey. It makes no difference.

    @bella[emoji638][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji637] The answer to your question, will i feel a bit ropey if my numbers drop under ten, is yes. It is known as a false hypo, your body has got used to higher numbers and doesn’t react well when they start dropping. As long as it is not an actual...

    Type 1'stars R Us

    @Marie 2 Yes there was far too much stuff in their large four bedroom house. Dad died in February and mum is in a care home near me with Alzheimer’s. Their home is an hour and twenty mins from me. My brother is an hour and a half away. We have been meeting up for a couple of days every couple of...

    Type 1'stars R Us

    Not doing brilliant @Tony337 Have dropped my TIR and upped my well above TIR although I have been on my feet two days finishing the clearing of parents house and getting on the market. The insulin has behaved like water so just treated myself to a new vial of Fiasp.

    Freestyle Librelink logbook

    Just re read this thread, since I initially posted I now have a seventeen and still have no issues. This might be a ridiculous suggestion, but do you ensure all other pages on your phone are cleared before engaging with Libre. I know from experience with other pages that things can be slowed...
