Hey @becca59 The consultant told me that to get the best accuracy with it I would need to apply it when my levels are stable & to achieve that do it hours after/before food.

Thanks very much @porl69 I will remember that when I am due the next sensor.

Ah yes I'll let you know how it goes @smc4761 I'll be putting it on/in about 4:30 this afternoon. I was told to do it 4 hours after eating & at least 2 before next meal. I'll update you all tomorrow :)

Yeah the consultant did say there could be a slight delay with it getting accurate. Thanks :)

Aww thanks so much @slip The excitement is definitely outweighing the nerves now! I'm really looking forward to getting started with it :)

Thanks @porl69 It'll be so nice to give my poor little fingers a rest for the first time in 25 years! :D

Good morning everyone, I've not been on here for a few days ish, I've been suffering (and feeling sorry for myself) with Tonsillitis again! That is the 3rd time this year now :( But enough of that, I have excellent news .. .. .. Yesterday I got a Freestyle Libre!!! I am very excited & yet...

Good luck with the appointment @MeiChanski Sorry I can't give any advice, as my first appointment is next week!

Sorry to hear you had a Hypo too @porl69 your over treating doesn't sound so bad compared to mine though :wacky::hilarious: I really went for it! But it is the first Hypo during the night I have had in a long time, whereas I was getting them 2-3 times a week previously! So for that I am...

Hey @slip I know right, waking up low is just the ultimate test. I am normally ok ish at controlling what I eat when low during the day. But that goes out the window when I wake up in the night! Ah hopefully next time you'll absolutely nail it!!

Good morning all, I'm not feeling so great this morning, a midnight hypo had me waking up with a BG of 21 this morning. So I am somewhat grumpy, sick & tired! Why must I eat until I cannot eat anymore when I'm low o_O:wacky: I hope everyone else is set for a great day

Hey @garyc2 Oh yes I know what you mean there, I am not great at resisting biscuits either!!

Aww thank you so much @hh1

Afternoon all, Well I just wanted to say I am feeling VERY positive right now!! My appointment with GP went really well. apart from my BMI being just over what it should be (currently 30.3 & it needs to be 30 or under) the GP is happy that everything is good enough that she can refer me to the...

Hi @patc47 I'm sorry to hear you both have to go through that. It doesn't sound very nice at all. x

Good morning everyone, I woke a little higher than I'd like today with a 9.6. But feeling positive I can get back in the lower figures soon enough :) I am feeling nervous & excited & scared for my day ahead!! I have an appointment with my GP to discuss fertility o_O I have PCOS, so we're...

Aww I'm glad it made you smile. Yeah the pre-pregnancy clinic just wasn't right for me. It filled me with a feeling of failure every time I went. I was offered the chance to go back recently when I moved to a new GP surgery & I explained to the nurse how I felt last time & she told me she hears...

I feel your pain here @carty My Husband is exactly the same, every time we go to Lidl we come out with something like a chainsaw or drill bit set, or loppers o_O He just can't resist them.

Hi @Robinredbreast That's great that your daughter is there & able to listen when needed. And it's great you both have that mutual respect & won't cross a line with each other.

Hey @KK123 I know you're right. I know he loves me & that is all that matters I guess. I get frustrated very easily & until yesterday (until I joined this forum) I felt like I literally had nobody I could talk to regarding any aspect of my diabetes. x
