@Daphne917, thanks especialy about the reduction when stopped i dont even know why they put me on statins after a stroke quote "stroke ptients do better on statins" so take them stupid man and shutup (my take on it) they didnt even bother to check any lipids let alone vLDL and i paid private...

Is it real that statins cause increses in baseline glucose (never know nowdays with false info) The statins HAVE increased my baseline to about 6.5/7.0 mmol (finger prick) So i bought freestyle libre again (after 2 years gap to see if it was any better) I think i am inconpatible with this...

Ok after about 3 days and 20 calibrations... Its has become obvious to me that when using Glimp, the recorded RAW libre data is weird not jsut uncalibrated (lots of unexplained ramps and bumps that dont tie up with anything) Maybe Abbott have changed and obfuscated the readings in a clever way...
