This is very interesting, thank you. I do know he never puts his phone on DND. When he turns it on silent he simply turns the ringer off . I am going to talk to him about the rest as I do recall him saying something about if he doesn't close the app andeaves his phone screen on he is guaranteed...

I don't know anything about the glue being reformulated but my son has just started using them. He's allergic to the sticky stuff on plasters and he hasn't had any reaction at all.

I think its also worth saying, its very rare he feels hypo's. Prior to using the libre, he only felt around 10% of his hypo's and the others he only noticed when doing a fingerprick for a meal/snack.

Had an argument with my teen son regarding correction doses. It was late evening and he was going to do his Levimir before bed. His BSG was 17.7 so I asked if he'd drank enough - he said yes but I'm doubtful - then I said he would need a correction dose of novarapid. His correction dose is...
