I had the same issue on lantus. Gp never thought to mention about any spikes I might get, but I was involved in a trial with a cgm and found out I was dipping up to 4ml in the space of an hour around 6am. Was taking my lantus at around midnight before bed. I started taking in the mornings...

I went to order one today but I've been told that they are not allowing new users at this time as demand is too high and they need to prioritize sensors to existing users. Maybe the fact they are at full capacity is a factor in number of faulty sensors. Let's hope it gets better. Looking forward...

Hi, what is the glimp app? Can you use your phone as a receiver?

I've been considering getting a libre but I am a bit concerned about the accuracy. I'm confused though... is there no calibration? I used a cgm as part of a trial a few years back and it required a couple of blood tests a day to reset to the right level. If this is the case I'd be fine with...
