[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2478860, member: 25851"] I do have some patches to cover the sensors, but they don't stick any better to my skin than the sensors themselves. I've tried fabric plasters, micropore tape and another kind of patch - can't remember what it's called but it is like a soft micropore with holes in it. None of them will stick to my skin. This time, I hadn't put a patch over the sensor because the last one stuck really well and I thought that perhaps the glue had been improved. I will try to get hold of a different patch to try to hold it on. Or perhaps a kind of garter for my arm to hold the sensor onto my skin. BG back down to 17.8 by the way. Still far too high but I don't really feel very secure in taking yet another correction dose without food. I'll wait until tomorrow - or perhaps the early hours when I daresay I shall be awake again. I'll give Abbott a call tomorrow. Actually I have a telephone appointment with my diabetes nurse tomorrow - I might ask her if she can supply an extra sensor. After that I could give Abbott a call.
