What target range do T2’s set? I’m diet controlled, no meds. I’m confused about what range to set. Can anyone advise please?
I’ve had it a couple of years but haven’t used it for a while so I think it might be the first one. I can’t see ‘2’ mentioned anywhere.Assume you mean for Libre/2?
I started out with the defaults but think I canged the low range.
Report Settings are 4.0 - 7.8 mmol/L

As a diet controlled T2 you are very unlikely to hypo so the lower limit might as well stay at the default 3.9. The upper limit you will have to decide for yourself depending how well you are trying to be controlled. I think the alarms are of limited use to you, the limits just give a visual indication on the graphs and enable the time in range calculation.What target range do T2’s set?

I'm in exactly the same situation.I’m not monitored by GP practice as I’ve managed to get to low pre diabetic level with low carb diet. However I haven’t been feeling good recently with a lot of brain fog and extreme hunger so as I thought I would monitor with the libre for two weeks. The libre is showing lower values than the finger pricking strips so not happy with libre and remembered that’s why I stopped using it! I am down to one HBa1c test a year at the GP and next one not due until December. You’d think that they’d make more of an effort to help as I do everything possible to keep my BG readings down.
