I do not have diabetes
Hi. I care for my daughter who has had type 1 diabetes since 3 years old now 43. She also has epilepsy underactive thyroid and learning disability and its been quite a journey. So far she has resisted any suggestion of Libre sensor, but I live in hope.
Recently her weight has increased and readings been high and low. A visit to the diabetic nurse brings the suggestion of a change of insulin from Humalog and Lantus to Fiasp and Tresiba once our current supply is finished. We are now looking at carbs and calories rather than carbs alone.

Good luck.
