[QUOTE="dtennant9, post: 2182105, member: 54755"] Looking for some help. I had a sickness bug at the weekend. During the illness and even now that I am feeling better, I'm struggling to keep my blood glucose up and having to implement a -30% temp basal on my pump I'm pretty much eating as normal now but still seeing quite a lot of lows. This was also happening in the day or so before the illness kicked in. Annoyingly my Libre Sensor is reporting around about 4.0 mmol less than what a finger prick is reporting, so I think the sensor is not working as expected. Is this normal? I spoke to the hospital clinic, they advised the reduced basal until things go back to the way they were. Any help is much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
