In other news, I think this sensor is reading low... thank goodness for blood calibrated readings! New one installed and awaiting activation...


Yep if you look at my Etch A Sketch for most of last week it effectively said 'dead' as it was so flat in the LO saying that xDrip was saying no and showing that the readings were higher plus confirmed with the bloods.

Sometime I think the Official Libre App for both mobile and reader is rubbish, but the worrying thing is that when I go to for a follow up appointment then all the DSN will do is look at the Libre stuff. No doubt an 'interesting; discussion will be had me thinks.
 
Good morning y'all a waking 8.1 but had been up at 10 in the early hours, I scanned as I woke then had the amusing thought "I'll get this right one day" I'm about to start on breakfast and if all goes to plan (yeah right) I'll get the gym done this morning. Enjoy your weekend

And thermal knickers?

Or is that just me?

I've got some thermal long johns as far as it goes decent clothing when the waters freezing on conservatory windows when I clean them and it's a nightmare finger pricking and actually getting blood on the strip with pink hands.....
 

I think I might be having similar discussions Reader reading low, xdrip calibrated vs blood was rather more sane.
 
Well sat here on a Saturday night, drunk but not as trashed as last Friday and have just tried a Salted Caramel Chocolate for the first time and I'm surprised to report, it was rather enjoyable.

Something else to try out now

@Mel dCP hows the concert?

One of the micro-breweries near me, couple of lads who'd just got their degree in brewing from Heriot Watt and then built a small brewery from scratch, Pilot, did a salted caramel mochachino milk stout - bit of a challenge for T1 carb-counting it, but well worth it!

Next time you're tucking into an avocado, little sprinkle of Maldon smoked sea-salt on top, sounds pretentious, natch, but it makes a difference...
 
When it’s doing this, I put notes with each reading in my phone saying what Spike says, just in case the conversation arises!

Gig was good, still travelling home!
 
Good morning all. Woke to a 2.9 this morning, not the best way to spend the start of your 52 year on this planet

That would be a Happy Birthday hug (I'll send virtual cake later when I've made the cake here as there is a planned flurry of cake making due this evening) and a sympathy hug for the number. Hope it's getting more reasonable since you posted.

Thank you. Yeah 6.4 and straight line on the etch-a-sketch
 
If in doubt, eat wedding cake.
 
That's earned the need to do a BSL report latter!!
