Really? Does I work well for you? How did you figure it out the basal needs? Are they too different? Sent from my XT1033 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

I just think it's odd because when I did to adjust only during the exercise, but this time it wasn't enough - lots of hypoglycemias. So I changed everything and it was better but Saturday and Sunday not anymore. I'll try the changes in my TBR this week to see how it goes Sent from my XT1033...

Hey everyone! I'm a Type 1 and using the insulin pump and last Monday I've started with physical activity everyday at 13:00 pm and so I had to lower my basal dose on my insulin pump [emoji1] [emoji1] However, this weekend, I didn't practice any sort of activity and my BS is increased to 7-8...

I usually use as a SD blood glucose levels between 80-120/130 (its the normal range for people withou diabetes só I think it's a good one) :)

5,7% - but I want it ever lower [emoji4]

I'm on my second sensor and sice the 3th day of the first one I have allergic reactions to the glue - the region around the sensor is very soared, presenting redness, itching and small bubbles. Since I live in Brazil, I don't know if I can find these products, but I'll try to find them.

Uuh nice! Looking forward to tasting it [emoji39][emoji39]

That's great! I putted a new one yesterday and I'll wait until tomorrow to activate it as well - I'm optimistic about it! Hope yours works nicely like the current one [emoji1317][emoji1317][emoji4]

True story. My sensor is really dodgy but Abbott will replace it as soon as possible :) I'm gonna give it another try!

Hey guys just to give you an update I've called Abbott company and they are going to replace my sensor in five days! :) @Scott-C @maglil55

I hope it's just a dodgy sensor [emoji1317] Yeah I'm heaving also allergic dermatitis around the sensor, I'm don't know if that helps the wrong results. I'll try to buy the Optium stripes, thanks for the tip! :)

Thanks! I will call them tomorrow and explain the situation. Today I fell a bit better and hopeful! Going on a bike ride soon, that always cheers me up :) All the best to you too!

Yeah, I'll do that first thing tomorrow! Thanks a lot for the advice! :)

I thought I was an alien but I think I'm just about the same as you: I live diabetes, breathe diabetes and it also affects my mood like nothing else. I put on Libre this Tuesday and thought "I think this will me me calmer and try to understand better what is going on" - oh, how wrong was I...

Yeah, I totally get you. But for me the difference is way too big - today I measured in the Libre and it was finally something different then low - 98 and I got super happy! But in my meter it was 180 :( and again the difference this afternoon was from 100, so if my blood sugar is ok, it'll...

Hey everyone! I started Libre for abou 2,5 days ago and until now, I have experienced vary quirky readings comparing to the prick test :( maybe it's because I'm adjusting my basal levels from my insulin pump (very low readings), but I get LO readings almost 80% of the time with Libre (comparing...

I like to prepare a mug cake with one smashed banana and dry red berries with a low carb flour. It really like it [emoji4][emoji39] I can send the recipe if you want!

Hey guys! And @T1DM17, I stand by and relate to everything you said! I'm 24 and living with diabetes since 7, and Everyday I think I'm a walking diabetes , I live it 24/7 and it's so exhausting! I'm a 5th year medicine student and along with everything else, diabetes is always there to push me...

Hey TraceyT! I totally get you!! Sometimes, even when you eat basically no carb, you have to count something for the amount of proteins of the meal. Also, what kind of wine did you drink? Red wine usually is full of carbs - one glass I take 2 units. Did you stop to think if you're getting...

Usually I have 4 hipos a week (still trying to correct them) and my awareness is affected whether my hypos occur really fast or slowly - if really fast I only notice around 2,5; if not, around 3-3,5. You could check if maybe that's happening to you, going down pretty fast maybe clouding your...
