I put the new sensor on right away last night and figured I'd start it after getting up this morning to give it some time to bed in. I've never had a nighttime hypo in over 4 years I've been using the Libre (except for that one lantus Low, but that doesn't count) so no issue to skip a night. Only downside is no alarm if I start to rise in the early morning, but I haven't needed a correction during the night in the past 6 days or so, so chances were I wouldn't need it this night either.@Antje77 They will replace it, but it's a pain to replace it right before bedtime and then you can't trust it's accuracy for the night or the next morning. Then you have to do a finger stick test to tell what you are actually at because you don't have a clue how far off it will be.
It was even worse! I woke up because I got a phonecall from my aunt. It was 11:00 AM so I tried to pretend I had been wide awake and doing useful things for hours instead of sleeping in, making small talk with my aunt while testing and finding out I had this mystery hypo, and then came this confusing cascade of happenings, all before my first cup of coffee.@Antje77 Sorry but I am sat here in stitches laughing! Only diabetics could have this drama in the morning instead of just enjoying their breakfast.
Exciting!I am nervously awaiting my first alarm.
