    Hi all, I am now on my last day of isolation and over the worst of Covid, my bloods have been sky high for the majority of the time with Covid averaging about 16 to 18 but today they have been about 5 all day so i can happily say i’m rid of Covid now and back to work and normality tomorrow, yeah!

    Yeah the good lady wife is looking after me, i also spoke too soon about a working sensor as it is already saying replace sensor and only had it on a day so i will definitely need more test strips as the ones i’ve got won’t last the remainder of my isolation period.

    Similar issue with me SueJB, i have had about 4 libre sensors in a row that haven’t worked at all and the one i’m using now is telling me i’m constantly low but when i check my bloods they are spot on, i feel like going back to testing my blood sugars the old fashioned way again, technology...

    I totally agree with the exercise thing Marie 2, i seem to always get lows then highs hours after doing a training session, but if i sit down all day and watch a box set or a few films then my bloods are spot on all day.
