Does anyone else want to use the Libre2 on something other than your arm? I don't want to have it so publicly displayed when I wear a short sleeved shirt. I've had people on the street / passing me in a corridor at the hospital come up and talk to me about it. The people in my life that need to know I'm diabetic, know. I'm not into making it public to strangers.
Please tell me I'm not the only one that wants to make it more discreet??
Hi, I don’t feel proud of being db so would also prefer not to display the libre disk, I recently tried it on my thigh, I watched a fella on YouTube that had successfully done it, I put it where my jeans pocket is, if that makes sense, it worked great and if anything, the numbers seemed even more accurate than on my arm.
Half way through the second libre the disk started to hurt, It hurt quite bad by the end of two weeks, once I removed it I had a large bump, very red a very painful, the bump has lasted for ages but is almost gone now many weeks later, the site is still kinda painful but nothing too bad, it’s almost better.
The only thing I can put it down to is I sleep on my side and I assume the extra weight on the libre every night did something it shouldn’t have, I have never had a skin reaction to libre on arm, or anything anywhere in my life so no idea really but I’ve gone back to my arm and try to put it on as high as possible.
Sorry this was long and probly boring
