Week one completed and I've been impressed. No red lining on me, which was a real issue with the original Libre, I did check the accuracy with my meter, and its pretty much in line. So that has been very good.

From the first week use, it looks like that my basal rates on my pump have drifted out big time, as noticeable raise morning and also just after lunch time. So I shall have to think, which part of the day to tackle first...

But with the last couple of days of rather hot weather 31c today, being able to scan, check see where I'm going has been a bit of a god send.
 
Great to hear @Ellie Jones

We’ve had a few members who haven’t had the best experience, so good to know it's working well for you 🙂
 
Its the first sensor, so still got my fingers crossed as. I did try the original sensor and that was just rubbish to say the least.

I phoned my surgery today, to get my prescription, my gp should had the letter last week, and should be on repeat. At first receptionist said, she couldn't, then I said it would have just gone on, then heard more keyboard tapping, then she said all been requested, I went to ask when I'm able to pick up from chemist, but she had already put the phoned down, no 'Is there anything else' nor even a simple 'Bye' how rude
