Sorry if this question has been asked multiple times.
I am going on holiday in a couple of weeks.
We are staying in an ecological park and will be spending a lot of time in water of some sort.
It's in Mexico so will also be very humid. I fully expect the libre to be wet with sea, pool water and humidity for much of the time.
I saw my diabetes nurse today and asked her what she recommended for water proofing the sensor.
She suggested skin tac. A sprat that you apply to skin before applying the sensor. I looked on Amazon and it has mixed reviews.
I have also looked at the sensor covers. They have mixed reviews too.
Does anyone have any experience of keeping sensors attached in extreme conditions?
TIA
