[QUOTE="enzina, post: 2093125, member: 3870"] On Sunday i'm going on my first holiday since i am doing the whole T1 program. I'm so anxious, stressed and even down, i nearly wish i could stay at home. The diabetic kit is ready to go in the hand luggage, i have everything double or triple backed up. Yesterday i have applied a new Libre sensor and it's faulty! The levels show 2-3 mmol too high, that's just no good. Now i'm testing with strips as well and wait for the sensor to stablize. I had to call Abbott quite a few times, got a replacement sensor very quickly but usually they are telling me to leave it on for 3-4 days before they replace it. I do have three spare sensors and don't know if i should apply a new one, of course these things are always happening on a weekend. I'm going away on my own since several years and never saw it as a problem. "Only" on Lantus was easy in comparison, have travelled to the US and Middle East. On Sunday i'll go to Fuerteventura.
