    FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

    Hmm things continue to go well. It's been bang on with finger stick tests since insertion, data has enabled me to head off a couple of lows and correct potential highs. Been flat lining between 4mmol-7mmol since 15:00 yesterday, despite consuming 150g of carbs in that time frame. Impressed!

    FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

    I think body fat would likely play a part. I have very low body fat on my triceps and am unable to pinch any tissue or fat which had me worried about accuracy. But so far so good.

    Ha I've done more finger sticks in the last four hours than I do normally in a day haha. Give it a bit longer and I'll let the finger sticks slide.

    Ah man, I'd have used a VPN service to a UK IP address and ordered it anyway, DHL would have kept it for a month before return or you can arrange an alternate delivery address!

    Do you ever confuse symptoms of hypo with hyper?
