Thank you for getting back to me. I have come to the same conclusion and I leave it as it is. It is more important to get the alarms.

Has anyone managed to overcome this. When configured to "Override Do Not Disturbed" a notice pops up to say in essence the alarms on the Libre 2 are turned off.

I am sure I am not the only one with this experience. I have Type II controlled well with tablets and insulin and seem stable over the last six years at least. Very occasionally I will wake up about 4AM with a low BSL <3.5. This could occur months apart so it does not worry me. What proceeds...
