My Libre app updated, blank white screen so deleted app but it’s not there in App Store to reinstall? Darent go out as I can’t finger prick well - should I ring Abbot?

Yes I have a physio appointment a few weeks after my ultrasound

Hi I’m type 1.5 and recently experienced a feeling of electric shocks in my arms like all my veins were electric threads. It’s an awful and painful feeling. I’m not sure if it’s neuropathy but being sent for ultrasound scan on my shoulders as dr felt it may be my rotator cuffs on shoulders. X...

Well I’m self employed but yes I did wonder if no sleep also contributed- Thankyou

Started antibiotics Thursday for a chest infection. I had struggled to keep my sugars to one digit a few days before being prescribed these - now it’s more of a struggle. No sleep whatsoever as post nasal drip even though I’m propped up on 3 pillows! Coughing so hard nearly sick. Currently have...

Wow ouch!

Yep it’s biggest bruise I’ve ever had! Bath was good lol

I have a glass of red wine each night, also quite new to type 1.5 diabetes. I remember the nurse saying it does depend which drinks you have and to not have as much insulin. She recommended cocktails
