Hi
Just looking at some kind of sensor reader thing that u can keep an eye on Blood sugars.
Ive seen the Amrosia reader which looks good.
But what libre freestyle or any other one?

Thanks
 
Not exactly sure what your asking but here goes.

The Amrosia is BlueCon which effectively will sit on top of a Freestyle Libre sensor and turn it into a CGM, so will transmit data to your phone every 5 - 10 minutes, I think.

So you would buy your Freestyle Sensor then buy the Amrosia and then use their phone app or a third party one to get the info you want. The Libre's last two weeks but the Amrosia would be reusable.

Yes they are good as is the Free Style and MiaoMiao combo which does the same thing, there are a few on here that use either one and are liked.
 
I've been happily using a Miaomiao and the xdrip app for about 4 months. My first Miaomiao stopped working after 2 weeks so I can say that I've been very impressed with Miaomiao customer service, they have a representative here in the U.K. There have been a few occasions when the Miaomiao stopped talking to the sensor but it's easy to start up again. I can't personally compare it to other devices but I looked at several websites which I googled who gave comparisons and helped my decision making.
