[QUOTE="Kirbster, post: 1789972, member: 47482"] I freaked out a bit when I knew I'd have to live alone after going through a divorce, especially since I'd just gone through a period where my ex husband had to bring me round a couple of times from some bad hypos during the night. However, I've now gained confidence and have found what works for me (although this is just for me!) is I now follow a very low carb (keto) way of eating which has greatly reduced the amount and severity of hypos I was having, and I also wear a Libre with a recently purchased MiaoMiao device which in effect turns the Libre into a CGM, and I've already had 2 instances where the alarm has woken me up during the night when I've gone hypo. I know not everyone can afford the Libre or the new MiaoMiao (which is a one-off cost and sets you back about £150) but if you can afford it I would highly recommend giving it a try. [/QUOTE]
