What they said ^^^ those levels are great. You are very very unlikely to get your levels to stay exactly the same all day every day. There are just too many things that affect levels. As long as you're in your target range then you're fine. If not correct (either way) and off you go again. The...

Oooh yes so you can (it's under File > Export in the software for anyone else looking) That 3.4 is right around the error time though... See how it goes tonight!

Hmm actuallythat drop coincides with a time when I scanned and got an error so I can probably ignore that, would probably be a good idea if they flagged errors up on the graph too!

It is indeed, came on after the hour. It's really interesting. One slight niggle that I'd have is that you don't seem to be able to see what your blood glucose was at a certain point. I've noticed that I dropped quite low over night before coming back up again (I know it's low as the line went...

I registered on the 9th of April and am currently waiting for my first sensor to activate... *checks clock again*

Well the adult part of me is thinking that it's been 6 months, another few days won't matter, the 5 year old in me keeps checking my email for a shipping notification though!

Got my order invitation this morning (09:01) placed my order by 09:07 :) just got to wait the 3 - 5 days for delivery now!

Hmm that's rather interesting... I just had a look at my diabetes connect reports for the last couple of months and I'm apparently averaging 125g Carbs per day, that's not including carbs from protein (you know what I mean) but does include any low BS corrections... Shudder to think how much of...

I think the normal standard is that your levels will be back in range within 5 hours, always tough to be that patient though especially if you eat a meal in the mean time!

9th of April for me, I must have just snuck in. Hopefully you'll be in the next batch!

Think their factory must be working overtime, I've just got my email as well.... I think I'm going to order the starter pack and then see how I get on in that first month, it will be worth having the device because I think you can always not buy the patches for a while and then if you start...

Can't answer your question as I'm on the waiting list myself. Would you mind me asking when you registered though? I signed up back in April and it would be nice to know roughly how many months (years!?) wait I have left!

The problem I find with carbs and cals (whilst the pictures are very useful) is that it's not quite as accurate as finding the carb valuue of something and then doing the maths yourself, for example I'm having baked beans for lunch, the can says that;s 25g carbs (on the 200g can) carbs and cals...

Blimey If I had a "pig out pizza" I'd be in the 20's before I could blink! Don;t think you need to be too hard on yourself for going to 14!

Apparently some of the mood changes associated with pmt are die to blood glucose changes. I'm fairly sure I'm quoting from someone else on here saying that... Obviously no personal experience for that observation!

Levels changing rapidly can get me (normally down but going up can do it too) if you can get your levels more stable (not easy and something I'm still working in) you might feel better. One other question are you on lantus?

Yes probably, surely any improvement will make a difference. I'd been doing carb counting all my life too, I still learnt a lot, I didn't know bolus lasted for IP to 4 / 5 hours so used to correct after 2 (and go low). I didn't know about ratios, I just had a set amount of insulin for certain...

I think the problem with putting every diabetic on a restricted diet is that people wouldn't stick to it (look how hard people find it to lose weight) if you educate them on how to cope on a normal diet then at least you give them a fighting chance.

Don't bet on it, I'm 30+ years in and still learning! :)

Very lethargic, and my legs ache, normally once I'm over about 12..
