The trouble is not everything is the same for all people. Sourdough is no better than ordinary supermarket bread for me, apart from rare types. One from a local bakery made in the traditional way with added rye and seeds is a little better for me. It still causes a spike in blood sugar though...

This thread might give you some ideas as well https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/what-have-you-eaten-today-low-carb-forum.75781/

Did you wash your hands first? Could sugars from the apple still have been on your fingers? If it can’t be contamination then I’d check a couple of times tomorrow, and if still out then contact abbot for a replacement sensor.

Morning all, 7.1 this morning. For other medical reasons I can only wear sensors and have injections on my right arm. I’ve often had flu and Covid injections in the same arm as my libre without any problems.

I think the libre is only licensed to wear on the back of the arm although I have read of some people on here trying it elsewhere. I wear mine on my arm and the only time it’s on show is if I have a sleeveless top on, or if I’m swimming. Even a t shirt covers it. I’ve only ever had two people...

Well done.

That’s very good.
