I've just started using the free style libre 2 im type 2 tablet and background insulin i have recently cut carbs out/down.
My questions is im going low 2 to 3 times a day . Level goes down to 3.8 to3.2 a couple of time a day. Should I flag this up with nurse?
 
When your libre records these levels have you checked with a blood sugar meter?

My libre is usually half to one point below the reading with my meter.

If the readings are accurate then yes, I would have a chat to your nurse and see if the insulin needs reducing. Also of course remember not to drive at these levels.

That's a good point , I will check this thank you
 
Does the trace line go into the red or is it just the spot readings and alarm? The latter can vary quite a lot with a new sensor but it may settle after two or three days. The average trace line is much more accurate.
