[QUOTE="Rokaab, post: 2498210, member: 450212"] Before I got the libre I could never ever manage my levels at all - it all seemed completely random. In fact even when I got the libre I could see that it was still very random (there was some wonderful rollercoaster designs on my libre graphs) but I could see what was going on so could deal with it (ok some of it) which helped with my control immensely. It also did show exactly why I was having soo many issues with my blood sugar in the morning - even though I tend to eat at 6pm/7pm at the latest, my sugars overnight were just another rollercoaster ride (different every night) - as it happens since mine is so rollercoastery the only viable solution for me was a pump I'm a completely data driven person so have all the data suddenly available empowered me and meant I could actually do something about it rather than just base something on some snapshots during the day which didn't tell the story at all. But yes, mine was always random afaik (40+ years) and was not controllable before now but I now have the tech to deal with it (pump and sensors) and so its a lot better controlled (though still unpredictable) [/QUOTE]
