Thanks all, Fortunately ketones are in check. Seems to be 150% to 200% normal bolus seems to be working well. I've gotten a course of molnupirivir from the oxford study so hopefully that might help. Fortunately symptoms are easing anyway. Praise the vaccines!

Hi all, I have finally caught the corona. It's not too bad at the moment, but I seem to be needing huge amounts of insulin to cover quite small amounts of carbs. As such I've had a couple of huge spikes. Is it possible that covid has increased my resistance to insulin? I wonder if I've let my...

Libre 2 - moderately hydrated, I think I have probably slept on it at night, is that enough to kill it completely?

I've had 2 sensors die this week and my third already seems to be dying ( is reading LO incorrectly and doesn't raise with sugar, have verified with BG test). Anyone else experiencing something similar recently? As far as I can tell I haven't changed anything about how I apply them....

I'm fairly new to this but an upper limit of 8 seems very low, especially as libre I'm on considers up to 10 'in range'. I only manage to stay under 10 after food if I nail the pre-bolus timing, so no wonder they are getting a lot of beeps!

Hi All, Newly diagnosed type 1, 3 weeks ago (on pancake day, yeah I know), just got my Libre 2. Interested to hear what numbers people have set for their alarms. I'm a keen cyclist, and my BG can drop very quickly when I'm out on a ride, so tempted to set a highish Hypo alarm, something around...

Type 1 as of Pancake Day 2021.
