After activating a Libre, it’s 24 to 48 hours before it reads close to a blood test. During that time, I regularly look at the Libre app 15 minutes after a blood test to see if the results are getting closer to the blood test result.I can understand your worry with your newly-diagnosed son; it’ll take a little while to discover all quirks of the tech, and all the ways Type One affects him. He’s very lucky to have parents who are doing their best for him! I expect you already have a good supply of things like jelly babies, fruit juice, sugary coke, glucose tablets, for him to have if his blood-tested sugars drop?It seems he’s doing well now if he’s been testing between 5 and 8.</blockquote>
