Life changing moments include testing on a crowded tube on the Circle Line, during meetings, at night time and whilst out shopping3.  I haven’t had to go to the pharmacy for more test strips in almost 2 weeks, and still have loads left!4.  The data it gives you when you connect to your laptop is fantastic! What I’ve learned:1.  My BG goes very low very night, so I have adjusted my basal2.  My blood sugar peaks after meals, so I increased the time between injection and food3.  Porridge is not my friend Negatives:1.  The stickiness came off after swimming so I’ve been wearing a massive plaster over it All in all very happy <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
