The company seem to be doing a deal here (Australia) for people to get free 2 month supply of Contrave and my endo has suggested it for weight loss (T1D with 100kg extra weight). It’s effectively a combo of drugs used to support recovering drug and alcohol addicts and the documentation of side...

Sooooo you were definitely right about deleting the ambrosia app altogether. It definitely improved ongoing connectivity. Even reconnecting itself after periods of disconnect. My Miao Miao arrived today, so I’m going to give that a try. I’ve struggled with the fixing tape for blucon, so we’ll...

Oh my, those charts are to die for!!!! [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️ Super congratulations on that control.

Thanks for such a comprehensive response. I should’ve said I’m using Spike and have changed the battery from the one supplied. I’m looking into better attachments so that the main issue with the fixing tape means I can take it on and off without too much fuss. I’ll have a read of a few more...

I’m a few weeks into using the nightrider with Libre and am starting to get frustrated by the unreliable Bluetooth connection. I’m on IOS with an iPhone 7. I use a waterproof dressing to stick the blucon over the Libre, and having to pull that off and do a pin aided reset so often is ripping...

Feet are soooooo important that like others have said, getting a fitting is the best. I have extra wide feet and long feet, and wear sneakers/runners almost exclusively. It’s not about vanity for me, so given the women’s shoes aren’t big enough, I go for the men’s - as recommended in the...

Another thought is to use something else over the Libre itself with the tegaderm over that. Effectively meaning you can replace the tegaderm without peeling off the Libre. A circle of plastic, maybe paper? Not sure...

The last couple of days have been a total struggle. Choices of low treatment range from a 400g bag of lollies (yes, the whole bag...) to 3 hot cross buns with copious quantities of butter. The resulting highs have been exhausting, then over-corrected to take us to the bottom again!! And...

I currently have an MCT & collagen powder mix that is chocolate flavoured and pretty tasty. I’m not a massive fan of bone broth, so the collagen from this is good. (for hair, skin etc.) From my reading, the MCT component for people on a Keto diet seems to be mostly about the fat content and...

Sounds horrible. Have you looked up Gout as a possibility? I know that neuropathy is obviously a concern, but from my understanding doesn’t usually attack quite so vehemently without warning. Gout on the other hand can. There are risk factors in dehydration that can come from high sugar levels...

That’s an awesome job you’ve done to bring it down. Don’t be disheartened if what the app tells you isn’t quite the reality. Unless you’re measuring every five minutes it’s really not going to be a great prediction. I’ve learnt that the hard way!! Your body’s response to storing carbs/glucose...

Sadly not true for Australia yet... I’ve just ordered a blucon to see how that helps. Really looking forward to having phone functionality. Interesting to hear about reader and sensor compatibility. I was considering importing sensors so my UK app download would work - glad I didn’t.

Ok, adding my own stupid! Just watched $100(AU) crash to the floor in the form of an about to be applied Libre sensor. Note to self (and others): the sensor applicator does not have a flat bottom, so once the cap is unscrewed, placing onto a hard surface may (read: will) make it roll to the...

Totally understand!! I went through a phase of eating anything that was “sugar free” but all that artificial sweetener has some side effects. For me, it caused inflammation to the point where my finger joints started to seize!! One suggestion is to check out some other dessert options. LC or...

Oops!! Thankfully I’ve only ever done it the other way round. I say make the most of it and have something super delicious when you need to “fix” it!! Do test more often though to be sure you know when it kicks in...

Well done!!! What a great result. [emoji1]

If I get one too ripe that I’m not ready to use, I revert to mashing it with lemon juice, salt/pepper, maybe sour cream. Make a spreadable or dip! Lasts well in the fridge. Delicious.

To answer your question about having something attached, I was hesitant about that too. I’m a Libre user and it has just become second nature - now on sensor 4. The first sensor I didn’t quite put in the best position on my arm and it was loose by day 10, but I’ve been fine since. Check out...
