[QUOTE="Odin004, post: 1510935, member: 406622"] Hi [USER=18329]@**shell**[/USER] I completely agree with the above comments - the Libre will really help you establish what's happening with your sugars overnight (I strongly suspect you're going low during the night); you can buy it on a "one-off" basis, and the results will be very valuable to you. There's really no doubt that seeing exactly what's happening to your blood sugars is a very positive thing - and if your DNS doesn't support it, I'd certainly ask what he/she feels the downside is - as there isn't one. It is perhaps true that NHS staff can be quite cautious about endorsing a product (or a treatment) that isn't available on the NHS - but that's more for political reasons, and has nothing to do with diabetes management - so please don't that put you off!
