[QUOTE="Leeannea, post: 1493650, member: 411549"] Hi. I have LADA and am on novorapid and lantus . I just got a freestyle libre in an effort to fix my terrible waking to lunchtime readings. I know that the libre tests interstitial fluid and that there is a 10 minute lag time between that and blood but there is a 20% difference between the libre and glucometer, with the former consistently higher, even when I've been sitting and not eating. I had faith in my glucometer with regard to the amount of insulin I injected but I also trust this new technology but I'm scared of having a hypo if I inject according to its readings. Can anyone help. Many thanks [/QUOTE]
