    Happy Jos Ice Cream

    I’ve tried it. It’s absolutely delicious. Super smooth. It is expensive but for me it’s worth it. Coffee is my favourite

    I had the same problem with my last sensor. Phone the Helpdesk. They will send you a new one.

    DexcomOne+ vs Libre 2 vs Prick test

    Hi, I was thinking that. What is bothering me though is the Dexcom readings - I've been going between 5 and 7.5 across the day according to Libre (previous sensors). I am surprised at the deviation between that and the Dexcom and the Finger prick.

    DexcomOne+ vs Libre 2 vs Prick test

    Hi, hope you're all having a good day. I've just had my medication changed (addition of 0.25ml ozempic weekly and a reduction in insuline from 20 units to 10). This is my second week on the regime. I have been using Libre for a year now and, according to my Libre my 90 day average is currently...

    What did you pop in your basket this week? Low chat level

    Have you tried the nutrient dense crackers from M&S? 3 crackers has 0.3g carb. I love them with butter and cheese.

    Night glucose levels drop fast

    Libre 2 Plus trial v Dexcom 1+ trial

    Unfortunately T2's do not qualify for Libre on prescription unless they are under instruction to continually monitor. :(

    Libre 2 Plus trial v Dexcom 1+ trial

    I've never had that problem with the alarms. Abbott are very helpful. If you phone their helpdesk and tell them you think your sensor is faulty, they will take your details and send you a replacement free of charge. Ditto, if your sensor falls off or stops giving you readings, they will...

    Xultophy

    Hi, thanks for responding. That all sounds positive and looks like it's really worked for you. I have only been on insulin for 7 weeks and I was put on it after a DKA. I’m Type 2 and it is very rare for a Type 2 to have DKA, but the hospital told me it was because of my SGLT-2 type...

    Type 2s: What have you eaten today?

    How long have you been doing that and is it helping?

    Xultophy

    Hi all I'm wondering if anyone has been prescribed Xultophy and if so, how are you finding it?

    Type 2s: What have you eaten today?

    I've had two boiled eggs with butter (mashed in a cup) and three nutrient dense crackers from M&S (0.1g carb per cracker).
