I've only had my libre on for a week now and yesterday it showed me another one of its many benefits. I was diagnosed last dec and experienced my first sick bug yesterday/today. The libre meant that my family could check my blood sugars without me knowing which allowed me to rest. They used this instead of the finger prick and it reassured them as they could do it as much as they liked.
For me being sick it has made it easier, I've been in bed all day and the thought of all the prep when finger pricking seems like too much hard work when I can even keep water down! The libre has made a huge difference, very pleased I've got it!!
