[QUOTE="TashT1, post: 2284897, member: 526953"] The sensor is the same size as a £2 coin, I checked. As someone completely new to all this it was very daunting and I’m not looking forward to replacing this first one on Thursday. I made the mistake of looking at the needle before trying to apply the sensor & to me it looks huge. The nurse literally grabbed my hand & forced me to do it. It wasn’t a great moment for personal autonomy but I probably would have chickend out. But ultimately it didn’t hurt at all & I will be applying the next one. [/QUOTE]
