As promised, a quick set of polls on how your Hba1C has changed from using the Libre. If you have anything else to add, please feel free to comment!
 
I think many people won't have had a HbA1c test since buying their Libre yet. If I relied on the NHS I'd probably only get one or two a year and my next one won't be until October. It's only because I have a machine at work and can buy the cartridges that I can test every couple of months. Lucky, I know!

A lot of people on here have been using it for more than 18 months so it's a valid question I think!

At least the thread will have been bumped up a bit! Might get a few of the longer-term users to add their responses :)
