I'd like to be able to monitor my blood sugar using a continuous monitor like the FreeStyle Libre system, but my phone is not up to date enough for the app. I was diagnosed with diabetes 2 about six years ago, but mangaged to keep it in remission until recently. I have been testing by pricking my fingers and using the nexus strips and monitor and have sore fingers! I'm really keen to understand what affects my blood sugar so I can adjust my eating / drinking / exercise habits accordingly. Since new year I've been on a very low carb diet, but still find I have blood sugar spikes at times and can't see a reason why. Any advice really appreciated!
