    Freestyle Librelink logbook

    @Jordi77 Thanks for the tips :), I'll have to look into that, although like Glenaneen said I'd want to see the entries within the graph. PS It would make it much easier reading your posts if you used commas and full stops ;) @becca59 Sometimes I need to add entries in belatedly where I've...

    Freestyle Librelink logbook

    As I mentioned earlier, my phone's on Android 9 ;), and the loading times are over 2 minutes! Like you, I've largely given up on looking at the log.

    Freestyle Librelink logbook

    Googled this as I've been having problems with L2 logbook loading times for maybe a year now! I've largely given up using it, but when I do it takes over 2 minutes to load!! And I know I'm not exaggerating because I've set m screen's time out to 2 minutes and it goes to sleep! Now unlike you...

    Questions for T slim users

    Thanks for the reply, and good to hear :). And yes my current pump gives me a warning when the battery is low, and then it'll keep going for another week! lol. Doing it that way means a battery lasts about a month :). Oh, and when the low battery alarm 1st goes off, I then grab a spare battery...

    Questions for T slim users

    I've tried below the belt line, if I put them where the front pockets are, it ends up getting sore as I take my hands in and out of the pockets. I can't put them on the outer part of the legs as it'll get caught/knocked during work. I did find a few narrow locations that were neither of the...

    Questions for T slim users

    My pump itself isn't the issue (except when I sleep and the belt slips round), when I mentioned catching or leaning I was talking about the infusers or sensors. Btw, does the T-slim not have regular low battery warnings?

    Questions for T slim users

    Good to hear it charges quickly, that's something anyway, my trouble would be remembering to do it. I'm not kidding either. Pump capacity isn't a problem for me, I only fill the reservoir with ~170 units and there's still some left at 3 days. I have heard of Libre 2 and 3, but what are the...

    Questions for T slim users

    My Paradigm pump ran out of warrantee a couple of months ago, and my DSN is waiting on me for a choice of a new pump (out of Medtronic 780g, Omni pod (dash?) and T-Slim). I'm actually not keen on any of them! Lol. The 780g is bigger than my current one, the Omni pod is just going to catch on...

    Elpis Genesis Bloodless Glucose Monitor

    Can't say I trust the tiny amount of information on the diabeticglucosewatch.com website. Going to Eplis's Canada's site I saw this Medications intake and treatment decisions should not be based only on the measurements taken by Elpis Genesis - kind of makes it pointless doesn't it?

    FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

    Thank you for your reply :), useful, to know, pity that it's so far out with high & fast changing levels, fast changing I understand as that's an inevitable consequence of measuring with interstitial fluid (I get that with my CGMs too), but the higher level issue is disappointing. Thanks for...

    FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

    Re your quote, yea but how accurate did Emmotha find them in the end? (I only read the 1st 13pages so don't know what happened after her 1st dodgy sensor). How accurate are you finding them? What did the faulty sensor do?

    FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

    Hi all, only just come across this thread! (don't come here often) Could any users of the Freestyle Libre summarise their experience with it? Rather than me trawling through nearly 200 pages! Thinking of getting one for sporadic use as it would be far cheaper than the Contour CGMs I very...

    Keeping insulin cool

    I noticed recently on a box of insulin (I use novorapid & Levermir) that it says it's ok upto 30C! I thought the limit was 25C? :?

    How do you keep cool and stable in the 'heat' ?

    Hate this heat when working, to hot to work on cars! Let it rain! I find as it goes over ~25C it tends to lower my BG, but not consistently, still nothing about my diabetes is consistent, impossible to control properly, all I can do is avoid too many hypo's. It doesn't help though that the...

    Diabetes and Car Insurance

    I thought Diabetics who took insulin (like myself) automatically had higher premiums?, I was sure of that! lol. Is that something that's been dropped recently?

    Blood Sugars Ups and Downs Suspected Honeymoon

    Yea I should get that book really, thx for the tip :). Although I would still have no idea how much insulin to take anyway even if I knew that carb content..
