[QUOTE="gemma_T1, post: 1882022, member: 473650"] So glad I read your post as I too am allergic and couldn’t remember what I could buy to help as I don’t want to give up the Libre, I have reduced my hba1c by 20 points and am so happy ... I am allergic to the glue and not the filament (luckily) my diabetic specialist has given me cortisone (not happy about it, but what can I do ) as I look like I have been branded or a victim of a fire. It burns the whole time it’s in but it works just fine and I find my readings are the same as the meter at least 95% of the time and when they are different it is the Libre which is higher than the meter. Also the Libre predicted hba1c was higher than the actual hospital test by 5 points, so hopefully the next hospital test (October 1st) will be lower too and I’ll be down to 40 or less and over the moon .. I couldn’t have got to where I am now without it... or without this forum I hasten to add.. I take great comfort and inspiration from all posters ... By the way do you find Cavilon works for you? Best wishes [/QUOTE]
