freestyle libre sensor

As a Type-2, managing my condition through diet alone, and having read Jenny Ruhl's "Diabetes 101", I'm concerned that post-meal blood spikes are the thing to watch. I check these with a cheap SD Code-free glucometer. This is adequate. Nevertheless, I can't see what happens between meals, or...

Hi All I have had my FreeStyle Libre machine for a while now, and I love it. I don't buy sensors every month, but when my fingers get a little sore, I buy sensors and give them a break. I think the FreeStyle Libre is great, it is so convenient and is less hassle. It does come with it's own set...
