For libre users. How big of a difference was between your A1C on your libre and the blood test? I just has my result and there was a big difference between them. My libre lacked some data over the last 3 months(around 2-3 weeks) which I assume will affect the accuracy.

Anyone here having issue with the libre peeling off after 4-5 days? I'm getting this issue most of the time. Any tips or products I can use to make it last better? I tried some adhesive patches but they were terrible.

Thanks for the detailed answer. I'm on keto but around 4 weeks ago I pretty much ate whatever I wanted for about a week and every time I do that it takes me ages to bring my blood sugars back to normal. Whenever I binge eat my overnight glucose takes a massive blow.

Maybe you can have a better idea from that.

Could be I guess. Yesterday I had 2 ribeye steaks on their own around 7.15pm.

Type 1,usually last meal is around 7pm,keto diet.

I'm on Tresiba,taking 16u at the moment at 8.30pm but my glucose overnight is quite high compared to the rest of the day and I'm a bit confused a bit. What should I try and change? Increase the amount of Tresiba or maybe inject it earlier? I've attached a screenshot.

There is a youtube channel called Headbanger's Kitchen the guy follows a keto diet recipes are easy and tasty.

Thanks appreciate it!

I don't have to..it's just that I think it's helpful. I'm very active so I'm sweating a lot wich doesn't help but thanks anyway.

Any tips on how to avoid the sensor coming off? I'm using skin tac and patches and I'm still struggling with it sometimes especially on the back of my upper arm.

My dad tried to commit suicide so unfortunately I have to go abroad right now it's not a choice but thanks for the answer anyway.

Thanks! I'm sure you and your husband will travel to Greece and have a brilliant anniversary! :)

Thanks for the answer..unfortunately I have an emergency and I need to go abroad for a bit.

Unfortunately it is an emergency.

Has anyone here travelled on an airplane since the pandemic started? If yes any tips please? Thanks.

Diabetes Solution by Dr Richard Betnstein is a good place to start! It became my bible after I read it. Only wish I read 10 years ago.

I have to admit I didn't know lantus was stronger than levemir until I swapped them even though on their description it says the same thing but anyway I have to work with Levemir right now. Only thing that annoys me is that I have to use a higher dose of Levemir.

This is a normal reaction. Probably a combination of dawn phenomenon weight training and the orange juice(wich made things a lot worse). Even without the juice your bg would've went up. I train in the morning as well(on an empty stomach) and sometimes I have to take 2u of novorapid to keep my bg...

Well the thing is I'm on a low carb high fat diet wich is another reason for my bg to be at normal level wich they're not atm. I used to be a very active person(strength workouts 5 times/week) until we had to go in isolation and atm I'm not doing anything apart from a walk in park. I'll just...
