Hi, does anyone successfully submerge their shoulders in a nice hot bath with Libre on? I’m reluctant to test it, for too long - (seconds only) and currently have a bath only on swapping sensors at end of 14days?. Also I’ve been on 4 holidays abroad - fairly sunny climates, and on 3 out of the 4...

Hi. Previous experience of being abroad is the 4 holidays have resulted in censor dying. However currently abroad and despite a “too hot” alert I’ve been able to manage and protect the censor by having a piece of cloth strapped over it and keeping that wet/cool. Anyone bought something similar...

Have recently switched to Fiasp, to remove the pre 15min need to jab before meal. Have stayed on the 1 to 10carb ratio but since moving the sugars have been high to very high - over last 14 days in range is 44% with 56% above. Nothing really has changed with carb counting and meals/snacks...

Started with dodgy throat, sniffles sinus pains, aches etc on weds night - and since then till now no reading has been under 10 (max 18). I’ve injected as normal after carb counting, I’ve factored in correction doses to get reading into a range of 7-9 - I even may have doubled dosed one day and...

Hi, can anyone explain the impact of alcohol on sugars. I’m on a carb count and inject appropriate amount of insulin lifestyle. I returned from an all inclusive holiday a few weeks ago, where I was having beers (not excessively) regularly during the day but never estimated the carbs and didn’t...

Hi, I’ve been using these since early March - went abroad in March and it died about 3 days in, currently abroad again and it’s died- good job I took the back up finger prick kit - anyone had similar experience - can’t these stand a bit of heat. I deliberately kept it out of sun/heat as much as...

I have just returned from a 10day holiday, and cannot praise the Carbs & Cals app enough. For me Carb counting was always something I struggled to understand so after the 14day free trial I bit the bullet (didn’t fancy carrying the Carbs & cals book around forever) and paid for a year - about 30...

Hi, just been allocated Libre 2 on prescription, anyone got the app from Apple store, can only find Libre 2 link to other devices, not the one that scans the actual disc and keeps the records TIA Steve

Hi, in a prev post (2wks ago) I mentioned that I’ve had to go on a quick release insulin with every meal- it seemed to regulate/reduce the readings however over the past 5days what I’ve eaten hasn’t particularly changed but readings are around the 12-21 range. The only thing that has changed is...
