The vlogger Diabetic Energetic has posted a youtube video about the implantable Eversense cgm: It's the first time I've seen any prices mentioned for it, at 13 mins in and in the comment below it. I've no idea where he got the prices from so have no idea whether they are accurate or not. If...

Hi all, I've been using xDrip+ for a few weeks now, am very happy with it. In Settings/Predictive Simulations, I've tweaked the Carb Ratio and Insulin Sensitivity to suit how those generally work out for me (have left the others alone till I understand what they actually mean!). So, having...

I like libre a lot, but, as other users will know, the factory calibration can be a bit iffy at times, and there's no hypo/hyper alerts. However, a few weeks ago, xDrip+ was modified so that it will collect data from Ambrosia System's Blucon Nightrider transmitter. The Blucon gets placed on...

There's a new toy out for the libre. It's called a blucon nightrider from www.ambrosiasys.com I got mine on Saturday. Pretty impressed with it. It's an nfc reader which sits on top of the sensor and then bluetooths results every five minutes to a phone. The graph is useless. For some reason...

Any phone app geeks out there!? Help! Have had C&C on my phone for about 10 months, but in the last few weeks, it keeps on losing all downloaded images every few days. I go into Setup, then Download images, sometimes says it has done it but the Space used still shows 0 mb and no images show...

Has anyone tried GlucoNightWatch? Or, more to the point, has anyone tried it and got it to work, in the sense of actually giving hypo alerts? http://www.gluconightwatch.com/?lang=en It's a free phone app which reads libre every ten minutes and then alerts above and below set limits. Apart from...

i've got a lot of respect for the T1 blogger here, but this Russian to English google translation about iport, fiasp and blucon had me rolling on the floor. Not taking the mickey about the intent at all, the blogger has written some good stuff, just that the way it's come across in the google...

Hi, all, after doing a DAFNE course last year, I had a sudden burst of enthusiasm for carb counting, and was finding that for those occasions when Carbs & Cals didn't cut it when eating out, I wanted a pair of portable scales. Got these, Joseph Joseph Triscales, fold up very small. Been really...

I really don't want to start a Daily Mail style "cure for T1?" thread, but I noticed some stuff the other day about trials Dr Denise Faustman is running with the good old fashioned BCG injections, and was wondering whether any docs/techy people have any thoughts about it. I know nothing about...

I was googling some stuff and came across this paper from 1957: http://diabetes.diabetesjournals.org/content/6/5/448 Would be so not pc now, but I love the fact they got away with saying, "The metabolic derangement of diabetes mellitus.." Hi, I'm Scott, I'm metabollicaly deranged!

Hi all, have been using the libre for about 8 months now, love it for all the usual reasons. I've been inserting it a while before activating it to give a bit of time for the local damage to settle down, certainly sorts out some of the first day eccentricities, so my thanks to the various...

Hi all, joined a couple of weeks ago but never got round to introducing myself till now. I'm Scott, type 1 for 28 years since age 21. Back then, pre-internet, it was just a case of getting a few books to mull over. Learned enough to manage and have always taken it pretty seriously - remember...
