[QUOTE="Energize, post: 2011445, member: 28960"] I'm due for (Middle ear) surgery in a couple of weeks and will be having General Anaesthetic. During the Pre-Op Assessment, I was told I would have to remove the Libre sensor. I have read, not sure where/when, that patients undergoing general anaesthetic have commented on how the Anaersthetist has found the Libre to be very useful during the operation and saving frequent finger pricking to monitor etc. Can anyone point me to where it might be stated/confirmed that the Libre is safe during general anaesthetic, please? I'm not planning on removing my sensor unless, after speaking with the Anaesthetist on the day, s/he insists, even after seeing documentation to confirm it's safe. Many thanks [/QUOTE]
