I let my pump do all the calculations for me :). Still work it out in my head to get a rough figure in my head before I press the give bolus button :) The Miaomiao is an add-on to turn the Libre into a CGM with alarms when used with a 3rd party app.

The Libre is notoriously inaccurate below 4 and above 10. Your lows during the night could possibly be compression lows but you have no way to prove that to your team as you are not finger pricking. Good luck with your license

If your medical team are telling you to do that to get your license then thats what you will have to do. Do you do regular finger prick tests as well? Maybe upload that as well? Just a thought

Do you totally rely on your Libre? Below 4 and above 10 they are very unreliable. I use the Miaomiao and xdrip+ and am able to calibrate it once daily. I still finger prick 3 times a day minimum BUT I will and often do bolus from the reading off Xdrip+

Hi @Oxyinnes and welcome to the forum My basal rates have been up and down for a while now, one day I get everything spot on, the next I am no where near (oh the joys of T1D). The past few days I have been getting DP.....As you are more than aware after 10 years you can do the same thing day...

Do you really believe that? After using Clinitest tablets (which gave no real indication of what your actual levels were) and needles the size of darning needles and glass and metal syringes. It is countless times easier now. Yes it still has its daily struggles BUT we now now what our actual...

Do us a favour and take some points off WBA (PLEASE):hilarious:. I do believe you will be safe this season John

Morning all. The dreaded DP has hit again today....not going to adjust my basal as yet as I know if I do then it wont come along and I will wake hypo. See what happens in the morning

@Beetroot2020 I am hypo unaware and use the Libre along with the previously mentioned Miaomiao. I can set alarms (with Xdrip) for lows and highs. Calibrate it once a day and it is fairly accurate most of the times. I still finger prick when above 10 or below 4 to check

Are you a no mask person? If told to wear one while out and about, would you?

Isnt rum essential :hilarious: Without diet soda I would not be able to enjoy a rum and diet coke. They definitely do not make me any more hungry

Morning all. Diabetes can go and do one today. Woke to a 16, been rage blousing and currently sat on a 12.8 with a south - easterly arrow, which Watlaa has just buzzed me as its now a south facing arrow. Getting ready with the jelly babies in around 3/4 of an hour :bag::bag:

Hi @TashT1 you may want to start a new thread on this as the 2 people who posted have not been on the forum for a long while

As a guesstimate I would say around 6g carb per 100g

I was furloughed for 9 weeks, longest 9 weeks of my life. I work in a very busy garage as a receptionist. Keys are wiped with anti-bac when handed to me, regular anti-bac wipe down of the surfaces and regular hand washing....I don't in any way feel at risk.

:hilarious: that hurt a LOT more than the Libre insertion. I too was that little brother

Hmmmmm, been told that since 1st diagnosed 49 years ago. I am not holding my breath. Unfortunately there is no money in a cure. I do hope I am wrong..........BUT

Haha. I think we have all done that! I hate needles even after 49 years of T1D. BUT it did not hurt at all. Been on the Libre for nigh on 2 years and only had one painful insertion

Morning - just BGs are being a right royal PITA yesterday and today. Todays graph looks like the roller coaster from hell. Think I may be coming down with something......see what the rest of the day brings

I had yet another heart attack while watching AND lost my voice to boot MOT
