[QUOTE="ConcernedRelative, post: 2693074, member: 565699"] Morning all, groundhog week. Waiting for librelink CS to open to arrange latest replace sensor, which has been happening almost every day, so frustratingly we have missing data from sensors since last scan at midnight. I tried a scan with diabox, just in case it was just the reader device having the sensor issue, but diabox also reported an error. Awaiting visit from the nurse today, already the evening bg was reduced by 2 a couple of nights ago, which may have helped (time until responsive from severe hypo was much less this morning) but more action(s) still required. I suspect that further reductions in insulin are required, as dad doesn't eat much / enough. He's almost as fussy an eater as he is irritable... I don't suppose there's any decent magic [B]evening snacks[/B] that he could consume that could help raise his levels, and keep them up? I'm guessing nuts and seeds are out the question with his dentures, but wondering if he might be willing to try some healthy (homemade) shakes , or whether he [I]should [/I]have weetabix for supper also, for sustenance. Really appreciate any tips, do's and don'ts, and any other suggestions that could be worth checking. Many Thanks [/QUOTE]
