    What’s everyone planning now that Levemir is going?

    I have found that injecting my Toujeo in the morning (33 units, which is 80% of my old Levemir of 42 units split 21 morning & night) works very well throughout the day. Indeed, I have to be a little careful about going too low, especially in the morning. However, by careful eating and using...

    Levemir to Toujeo

    I have found that injecting my Toujeo in the morning (33 units, which is 80% of my old Levemir of 42 units split 21 morning & night) works very well throughout the day. Indeed, I have to be a little careful about going too low, especially in the morning. However, by careful eating and using...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Yes, I think this will be my last post on this thread too, perhaps we ought to start a new thread, just following how our continued use of both Libre and Shuggah goes on? Yesterday I did another sensor change and followed the routine I have now established, without much difficulty. I put on my...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Correct, I have not had it turned on for about 2 weeks now. I have just checked my data in LibreView and it is all there. I do make sure I do a scan before going to sleep and another as soon as I wake up, so as to ensure I don’t have a gap greater than 8 hours between scans. I make sure I enter...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    So today I changed my sensor and decided that I would continue running Librelink without Bluetooth and just scanning regularly and with Shuggah Bluetooth turned on would use that for alarms and regular notifications to my smartwatch. I used my iPhone to activate my new sensor while keeping my...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    When I had both LibreLink and Shuggah, running side-by-side, both with Bluetooth turned on, when a LibreLink alarm sounded it also showed on my Garmin smartwatch, along with the actual reading at the time of the alarm. It also identified whether it was a high or low alarm. I did not get any...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Yet again, I’m much the same as you. I like to be at least 7 mmol/L but possibly 8/9 if I know I’m going to be driving for over an hour, especially if it’s on a motorway and particularly the M25, which has few service areas and you often spend lots of time in queues. I then set my Shuggah low...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    I can definitely recommend creating a LibreView account. If you put LibreView into Google, you can then select it to go to the site. At the bottom of the member login box there is a link to allow you to sign up. Once you have an account, data from your sensor will automatically load up. It shows...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    That is good to know, I’m pleased that at least the alarms are showing on your watch. Like you, I am very careful about driving. When my Libre alarms were working, it was the high alarm I ‘played’ with, setting it quite low as a test, 7.7. A while back this alarm was sounding on my phone while...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Thanks for coming back to me so quickly; I suspected as much. At the weekend I will be driving over 500 miles, so I think I will persevere with using Shuggah and Libre, as I described earlier, for now. It is also a little offputting that reinstalling the apps means losing the data within them...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    This afternoon I’ve updated to iOS 16.6 with Shuggah disabled, and I’m afraid Libre still does not work except to scan! I have now had to reactivate Shuggah which is working perfectly. I have turned off Bluetooth for Libre and will just scan and use Libre at least once every 8 hours. This is...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    I am in exactly the same position as you. I knew nothing of an alternative app until the crash. I was fully aware of Shuggah’s warnings about the need to turn off the Libre Bluetooth, but when I first started Shuggah, both it and Libre worked fully alongside each other with Bluetooth turned on...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Thanks for this, I have now tried turning my alarms off, but I’m still not getting continuous readings! I’m too tired now to try anything else, but in the morning I might try uninstalling and reinstalling the Libre app and see if that does anything. If it still fails, I will then try turning the...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    I am assuming that you are not running Shuggah at all. My problem is that I really want to run Shuggah because it sends readings to my watch which is a great bonus when I am driving. I had both Libre and Shuggah performing perfectly side-by-side, both with Bluetooth turned on, until I did a...

    Issue with Libre - blank screen

    Well, everything about mine was working fine, even with Shuggah working alongside it. However, I did another sensor change today and it has all gone horribly wrong! I started the sensor with the Libre app and with Shuggah Bluetooth turned off. The Libre app came to life, and when after 60...
