According to Twitter one of the East of England ccgs has already said 'no' until there's more evidence that it helps so looks like yet again it will depend where you are whether it'll be available.

My GP takes mine in to dispose of them - check with your practice. F

Great job -Well done!

Have just come back from Mauritius 12 hr flights - no problems with libre

Quite often late onset type 1 gets diagnosed as type 2 when I was diagnosed the gp said it'll be type 2.however I was tested for antibodies (I have other autoimmune conditions) and it came back v clearly type 1. Despite this medics/nurses keep querying my type 1 until they check my test results...

Sounds like me too but I'm back on the wagon and already feeling better so I can only recommend joining us back on board

Just spent a fortnight in the sun and the sea and it stayed attached throughout after initially applying skintac before applying sensor. I'm accident prone but have found skintac stops me knocking it off on doorways etc! Frances

ON the graph it should be showing your readings and lines joining them up showing the ups and downs. When you scan you should initially get a pop up with the number plus arrows showing whether your bg is going up/down etch which you don't get with the meter.

Hi Walking, pilates (my class is def exercise), circuit traing.

I've got libreview stored on my phone and think It's really good. My local hospital hasn't registered yet so I don't share but I was sharing through Diasend - similar system but works with lots of different devices F

Welcome I think quite a few of us started as lurkers.. Frances

Welcome, that relationship sounds familiar.:):(

Ta - not sure I deserve a 'well done' more of a 'thank goodness she's finally getting her act together':)

Hi Just wanted to share my good news. Last year's scan signs of background retinopathy - this year's result no sign so I figure I'm doing something right! Tresiba is also finally stabilised (with fingers and toes crossed) after a fortnight and bg looking more reasonable too although the libre...

I was out for a walk with OH and a lady walking her dog came rushing across the road towards us. I assumed she knew OH as he's lived here forever but instead she wanted to talk libre with me cos her grand daughter has one. Lovely chat. First time I'd met another user at all.

You're here so you obviously want to get 'back on' so that's the first step done! When I've fallen off literally (I horse ride) and with diabetes I try to stop thinking about what went wrong and just work on improving things a day at a time until I'm back on track. Easier said than done I know...

SWIFT course in Swindon useful and nurses were more interested in us all sharing rather than laying down the law about carbs.

Hope all goes better tomorrow as @DCUKMod says lots more experience should help No wonder you were upset sending hugs Frances

If you use the phone app it all uploads into LibreView so you've all the graphs you need and if you turn the sound down on the phone the bleep is not noticeable. I love my libre and only use my meter if I'm low as I find the libre slow to react to the climb back to 'normal'
