Libre 2 sensor-i have been type 1 for 22 years and 2 years ago I started using libre 2 sensor,I have found the readings increasingly unreliable especially showing i am having a hypo when I am not and they are prone to malfunctioning after 20 minutes in the sun or falling off the arm

I have a libre 2 sensor and have noticed 2 things.one is the sensor reading seems to go high after being changed,secondly has anybody noticed sensor readings to high if I am sleeping on the side where my sensor is

I am on abuglascar for my night time insulin,usually by 23.00 my blood sugar Is high but goes down by breakfast

I had my 1st tattoo and I'm type 1,have a libre sensor and also use asprin,the only problem I have is a bit of an itch around the tattoo sight,but there is cream for that

Healing nicely although tends to be itchy

Type 1 first tatoo

Usually 7 hours after my dinner time insulin (have dinner at 16.00,supper at 21.00)

I am on lantus at night,I usually take it at 21.00(supper time)

I have a rare genetic condition called melas syndrome and the diabetic team said it was a rare type of type 1 diabetes I have,I am also exercise intolerant due to my genetic condition which means I don't burn off as many calories

I am type 1 and my blood sugar is always high at bedtime,I use novorapid during the day and lantus ad my long lasting insulin. How is my blood sugar always High at night

I think this is a brilliant idea

Mines is 8.9 hba1

I am new to using libre sensors also and can't get a sharps bin from my local authority(north Lanarkshire Council)was told years ago to dispose of sharps in an old milk carton otherwise I would have to pay for uplift

I am type 1 and have covid at the moment and my bs are going crazy

I was told to inject in my buttocks which is the most fleshy part of the body
