[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 2065195, member: 468714"] Congrats on your achievement, from me, another 52 years on insulin person. I have avoided the Libre on principle although others seem to find apps of various sorts help, although even they have their quirks. I see it as only helpful for trends nothing else and in Australia we have to pay outright for it. One's finger tips do take a beating over the years and i am tempted to look at the Dexcom with or without linking to my insulin pump ( using pumps for 7 years now due to night hypos when on 8 + injections Novorapid and Levemir) could not control them. But it is a fairly recent change in diet that has enable me to go from HBA1Cs of 6.4% to 5.9% (and the latter reading taken 3 months after the first but with only 6 weeks on the new diet). Not all 'beer and skittles' mind you but encouraging, I think! (Please PM me if you wish to know more about it) But expense for the Dexcom is an issue here unless one is pregnant ( male, so no go)!, under 21, or pensioner. i can imagine your daughter is grateful for all the changes in diabetes management for he past 50 + years! My Best Wishes to her also. So welcome and keep posting - all wisdom gratefully accepted! It is all about balance Nothing is impossible [ATTACH]33333[/ATTACH] ....................[ATTACH]33334[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
