[QUOTE="ce81ar, post: 1504709, member: 85835"] I'd like to say it was logical, but having seen the system 'work' over the years it's prossibly because your DS isn't used to having that level of data and is only trained on the normal system. I privately fund CGM and although I originally didn't plan to use it all the time, I now feel blind when I don't have a sensor in. I'd carry on using the libre whilst you are getting set up as it will help you know when the settings are way off and you'll be able to react faster. It's also invaluable in getting your basal amounts set up right. I have been criticised by a registrar in the past for having too many different basal changes in a day. I set it up to what I needed to get a flat line through the day when I ate no carbs. You live with your diabetes 24/7, which gives you far more 'training' hours than the professionals ever get. Don't get me wrong, some of them are excellent, but the fact that they have diabetes in their job title is no guarantee of that. [/QUOTE]
