Libre 2

[nonethewiser]

Own admission don't look at data that often, decided to check this morning & surprised to see just had 2 low glucose events in last 30 days, none in last 14, remember those were gardening lows with phone in house but caught them anyway before full on hypo, need to remember to keep phone nearby in garden.

Have low alarm set for 4.5 to be forewarned about hypo coming on, seen someone mention it on forum, always look to see where arrow is pointing before deciding on any action, happy with how alarms on device has made huge difference to bg control compared to 1 version.

Great stuff @nonethewiser

I find it helpful to set an alert level quite high with sensors to get a bit of advance warning too.

Bear in mind with the Libre2 though, that you need to get back up above 4.5 to reset the alarm to sound again - which I found a bit of a snag occasionally. Would be nice if it timed out and reset after an amount of time you could set (15-30 minutes for lows maybe?) but I don’t think Libre2 has that option

No it doesn’t (that i have found) have an option to remind you to recheck after 15 minutes or to get another alarm if you stay low. Seems a bit of a missed useful one really.

Gardening is like hoovering, you know it will happen, and you check and prepare and they still just magically appear.

Great news though, i love these alarms!
