Thank you!!

Hi!! Just wondering what everyone uses or what’s best to keep your libre sensor on (tape etc) I’ve found recently they’re becoming less sticky and I don’t know if it’s because it’s becoming warmer? But I have bought some tape but it just doesn’t seem to be working? Any help would be brilliant...

Hiya!! I have a libre sensor and was just wondering if anyone knows of anyway you can go in water for longer then 30 minutes, as in if you’re going to a water park or something. I found on diabeticsupply.com armbands but I’m not too sure if they were waterproof?

I have a few hypos, not many but they are just consistently higher than I’d like

I take novorapid and lantus, I dont usually take lower than 14 of novorapid and I take 34 of lantus, I don’t eat to much I’m basically on my feet all day so I dont have much time to snack.
