[QUOTE="DunePlodder, post: 469900, member: 25119"] Thank you for all for your replies. Noblehead, you are quite right about the hospital clinic. The only problem is that the diabetic consultant & I did not get on, & I was glad to move to my GP surgery when they suggested it. Not sure if it's still the same person, I will ask. kkkk & Stefano This is great information & very encouraging. I live alone & though I've been fine for years I've always worried about the nights. I read posts about people waking up to find paramedics treating them & I know this wouldn't happen to me. I had a frightening incident over Christmas (see my post "Shivering") which triggered this CGM decision. I've set my alarm at various times of the night to check my readings but it seems I only ever do it when everything's fine anyway! I suspect that I occasionally go low in my sleep but a CGM would reveal all. I like gadgets so will probably find it addictive too. Not a bad thing if it makes us think more about how we manage things. It's good to hear that CGM is helping you both. Hopefully I'll be able to contribute my own experiences soon. Thank you again.
