[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1733610, member: 41816"] Oh yeah. Being ‘glutened’ is unmistakeable! With you there. For me it is my knees, a psoriasis flare up, and my guts. Yes, I still use the Libre - every few months. I don’t find it accurate on the highs, lows, and specific numbers. My sensors usually show numbers 0.5-1.0 mmol/l lower than my prick tests (assuming they are accurate). However, once I know how low a sensor reads, i just allow for it. And it is MARVELLOUS for showing detail on the graph line. The dip at 2.30 am that explains why i wake up sweating. The impact that 2 squares of dark choc has (none) as opposed to 4 squares (less than 1mmol/l) as opposed to 6 squares (2-3mmol/l). Knowing that, makes portion control soooo much easier! Lol I don’t prick test often now. Just when i feel wobbly. And then use the Libre sensors when ill or away from home and my food is less under my control. :D I usually run a few tests per sensor. Just to prove that milk choc buttons are still a really dumb idea ;) [/QUOTE]
