[QUOTE="Marie 2, post: 2223857, member: 475037"] The Libre can take some water submersion "a) Yes. Sensors can be worn while bathing, showering or swimming. Don’t take sensors deeper than 3 feet or for longer than 30 minutes. b) No. The FreeStyle Libre 14 day system has not been tested in sea water." Hot showers can make my BG level shoot up, even mildy warm ones can. But most people hot water makes their BG's drop. So be aware of BG changes that might occur. Also some spas don't want diabetics using the heated waters or saunas at all and in fact have warning signs up about don't use if you are diabetic. [/QUOTE]
