The 2 sensors I used worked ok.God knows - I was using a Freestyle Libre - its so **** (IN MY OPINION) bordering on a scam(IN MY OPINION)
Last sensors where
1) Broken - readings over 2 hours droped in a line from 6MMOL to 1MMOL (abbot replaced it) oh joy!
2) Ok'ish for 5 days - but last 9 days flat lined on 4MMOL
3) Reads 2 MMOL to high and its very suceptable to movement of my arm :¬(
Never pricked my fingers so much since getting (AND SMASHING IT UP).
This is rubbish tech - Be careful people - its your life
OK rant over proper reading was 5.4 on waking (2 meters 3 strip per meter average)
Thinking maybe a few too many carbs for breakfast8.6 pre breakfast and 10.00 2 hours after first meal.
I use Freestyle light and am perfectly happy with it.God knows - I was using a Freestyle Libre - its so **** (IN MY OPINION) bordering on a scam(IN MY OPINION)

Get yourself tucked up in bed early tonight then..... Olbas oil on a tissue by the bed...... hot lemon drink, paracetamol and maybe a touch of whisky.....Been around 11 all day. Cold is getting worse. Had it over a week now. Bgs been high all week
I can stay pretty level if my readings are on the high side, but no joy if I get down to low 6s let alone 5s. I sometimes think my body must be happy at these higher levels - but I'm certainly not!Had two of those today too. 5.3 pre and post breakfast can't remember what dinner was now but also a flatline
Bet that made you happy...
You may find you get more pleasing results if you alternate fast and medium pace throughout the time. I have found that this does not usually result in that higher reading after exercise that I used to get when going gung-ho at the same brisk pace for the whole hour or so that I was walking.Did 5.6 miles brisk walking this afternoon, in less than an hour370 calories according to this me app I'm trying. 6,600 steps, too.
Strange isn't it......I can stay pretty level if my readings are on the high side, but no joy if I get down to low 6s let alone 5s. I sometimes think my body must be happy at these higher levels - but I'm certainly not!
So well done you!

You are right about the Freestyle rubbish M...
