[QUOTE="Alison54321, post: 1903052, member: 472744"] I just visited the Facebook UK Libre uses page, and saw people talking about insulin neuritis. Apparently they had been running high for so long, that when they started using Libre, and reduced their blood sugars, they started getting pain in their limbs. Apparently it's only temporary. but sometimes I feel I've heard everything about what can happen with diabetes, and then I find I haven't. It's good that with libre they are getting their blood sugars down, as they must have had quite some nerve damage, and at least there is the opportunity for improvement now. I do think though that the main argument for libre must be that it just makes it so much easier to stay in range. But of course there is no data on how long people spent in range prior to libre, because it couldn't be measured. Surely that libre can measure time in target range must be the most important reason of all for giving people access to it A DSN active on twitter said she was looking at results with libre, and found that the people who tested most tended to spend most time in range, so it must be obvious that because libre offers as many tests as you want to do a day,. that that beats 8 test strips a day. It's so frustrating. [/QUOTE]
