[QUOTE="nsh2111, post: 2681147, member: 472768"] Hello All, Returning after some time here. I have just started using a libre ( using the free one time sensor they send) for now. I have noticed few things and I am now confused and need some feedback. Please note I am T2, and without any medication. Low to moderate carbs. 1. Started the sensor from Friday morning and I noticed that my sensor readings are always 1.5/2 points higher than the finger prick. I read that it takes a day or two stabilise but still not sure if its generally higher? 2. I do regular exercise. Both aerobics ( spinning/tennis/body pump class etc) + weight training. My BG levels go higher during that time and then stay higher for an extended amount of time, Not sure what can be done. I do exercise to keep the BG level in check but it seems to be having opposite effect. 3. Friday evening spike was after a carb dinner. The spike above 10 mmol was on Saturday morning was after tennis and a weights in gym . The evening spike was after a fairy carb rich dinner. 4. Sunday morning spike was after a body pump class.
