[QUOTE="adrian29459, post: 884146, member: 6703"] Thanks for the replies folks! Having spoke with my diabetes team recently I have had CGM on my mind. I've become aware of a product called Freestyle Libre, a unit you place in your arm and lasts for 14 days providing wireless BG readings and direction your BG is heading. It's not something I'd want in my body 24/7 as the pump annoys me enough already. At £60 for the unit and then £60 for each 14 days set of sensors its not cheap, or is it available on NHS, but its certainly something I may consider as a one off for a big race. Thanks for you ideas Scardoc, I think I might go out for a training run sometime with my tester, I've never done it before so it'll definitely be interesting to see how varying paces can affect my levels. I also might consider more testing leading up to races, I just feel sorry for my sore fingers! [/QUOTE]
