I’m using Libre 2 on the iPhone 12 and the alarms are under the logbook in settings. Home Logbook Alarms

Funny you should say this as I’ve noticed thinning of my hair and I’ve been on Metformin for 16 years, but switched to the SR one about 18 months ago.

My telephone appointment went well today, due to low BG’s now she’s reduced Gliclazide to 40mg and is seeing me face to face next week after talking to consultant. A Actually experienced first hypo early hours of morning.

I don’t have the answer to this but maybe someone will come along and answer soon.

Noticed that yesterday, three ASDA had Libre 1 in and the furthest away had Libre 2, I was convinced I’d ordered the right ones online- won’t make that mistake again,

I was already overweight when commenced on Gliclazide in 2005 and I gained about 4 stone in six months, it was horrendous but at the time I didn’t connect the weight gain to the drug as I was stressed, overeating and my mental health was really bad. I now make it clear I won’t take this drug but...

Took my first one off this morning, little tugging then found baby oil was ideal for removing adhesive.

For PIP things like being alert to hypos or needing help during a hypo would be seen as needing additional support for care needs. Do you experience pain from neuropathy etc. Or eye problems. Also to consider are anxiety or depression perhaps caused or made worse by your medical conditions.

Yes, I’ve noticed blurred vision a lot in recent months with high sugars and now they have rapidly dropped in two weeks blurred vision has got even more obvious.
