[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1470748, member: 295621"] I think if anything the reports that the Libre can generate will make the addressing/recognition of anomalies all the more easier for the HCP's. And I'm sure it's a breath of fresh air for the vast majority who have to interpret the BG logs of a diabetic as their day job. But like a lot of things, the Libre is still only as good as the depth of info applied to it by the user. And by this I mean adding as much detailed info as possible alongside the generated reports. I believe that it's very important for the diabetic in question to still keep accurate food logs, exercise logs and general lifestyle parameters (stress, illness, less activity, more activity, etc) because personally - all the aforementioned can cause fairly hefty fluctuation on my BG. It's a pretty cool feature on the Libre to personalise the 'add notes' option for tagging to your measured BG. For instance you could add things like: stress, long distance run, high fat meal, correction dose, anaerobic gym session, the list goes on... In short, I suppose what I'm getting at is that providing the Libre graphics/measured readings can be backed up by as much external influences that we're aware of - then it's a system that almost all Diabetolgists will welcome with open arms. This is a very interesting thread [USER=182669]@slip[/USER] and I do hope we see more input to it in due course:) [/QUOTE]
