Hi guys
I am just wondering what sensors you use?
I wanted the freestyle libre but it is quite expensive for the sensors each month at £100 ( haven’t asked my nurse yet but doubt I’d be eligible via nhs)
does anyone use any others that are abit cheaper?
I know some might say you can’t put a price on health but it’s just not feasible for me to spend all this money on 2 sensors a month at the moment, personally I think it’s quite steep but would love to not have to finger prick anymore and to see a reading every 5 minutes would really help with my control. I think the machine is a really good price but £1200 over the course of a year not at all slating those who are happy to pay this! As I really do see the appeal and if I could afford it I would be signing up!! Our health is obviously most important just hoping there is a cheaper just as good option? (other than finger pricking)?
can anyone suprise me lol...
