[QUOTE="RFSMarch, post: 2321579, member: 410451"] I don't fingerpick as I write by trade so finger pricking multiple times a day is just not practical! However if it makes you feel better, I HATE needles so to even apply the Libre sensor the first time took a lot of Rocky Balboa style psyching up of running up and down the stairs, arms raised aloft as if in the ring in triumph, followed by a bit of girlie whimpering before I finally bit the bullet and fired one off into my arm! It may not be perfect and towards the end of its 14 day life the readings tend to be a bit iffy, but it gives me enough of a steer to hope that the overall numbers are back on track! As I self-fund, and have been able to get control back thanks to lockdown and no work/travelling for work, I have been using it two weeks in a month just to make sure things are not going too awry.
