[QUOTE="rand55, post: 2466667, member: 551336"] I was diagnoised 4 days ago with type 1 and obviously I was crying for a few days but now im coming to terms with it, today I have been given the libre freestyle and I thought I would be relieved a bit more since I didnt have to do the finger thing anymore/as often but I tested the blood sugar from the finger thing and libre at the same time just to see and it showed 10.9 on the finger prick and 15.9 on the libre, this made me really anxious because how can they allow it to be off by this much. I understand there is a 5-15 minute delay so I waited 10 and it was the exact same number. I havent re measured the finger prick because im kind of scared but also they told me about the carb counting and I done it properly for all meals but basically I done 3 units of novarapid to have some tea and biscuits but then I done all that finger pricking and waiting and then It was about 30-40 minutes later until I ate the food which is not good apperently. I need help on what to do I think im going to do a finger prick test right now because my eyes are getting blurry and im getting an anxious again because I scanned the thing and it says its 18 [/QUOTE]
