    Freestyle Libre.. I'm disappointed

    I'm newly diagnosed diabetic. I've been getting used to testing my blood sugar with a small poke. It isn't that bad, but the idea of using a device to track my sugar without the need for finger pokes, or as much is something that interests me greatly. I've been reading about Libre here on...
