[QUOTE="ElkBond, post: 1071906, member: 270837"] I don't notice it tbh, only thing is I am conscious about is getting it wet in the shower, only because it seems the original white adhesive patch sucks the water a bit, and i can see it wet under my opsite flexifix layer. It seems to dry off however. I have been out and about today (first proper day out since diagnosis) and that is due to the extra confidence from the cgm. It alerted me on the walk back to the car (I'm not back driving yet!) i was on the downwards slope following food (must have been too much insulin). Managed to correct it and verify via fingerstick (its been really **** accurate today). I have attached my snapshot of 24 hours. I also had another alert for breakfast, too much nova again. Weird thing is my doses haven't changed in the last 3 days and I have used the same dose per carb ratio and both times its sent me too low, I am going to dial it back one or two. My guess is its taken my increase in Lantus three days to start working properly. [IMG]http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/16/02/20/f71721b431a6aae0775f6a8f04c58f5a.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
