    Freestyle Libre II and sleeping.

    Am I ok to lie on my freestyle libre II at night, as I sleep on my right side, and at the moment the sensor is on my right arm, is there any way I can do it gently? Sorry if i'm asking a lot of questions, but I am totally blind, and I want to get the maximum use out of my sensor I can.
