HI, Thanks your videos. What do you think about GLUCUBE from España.

Prices and how can I get one?

Hope it makes them lower their crazy prices

​@@MericanMade24Freestyle sensors are actually very nicely priced and the same across the board. No increase with newer systems...libre3.

Agreed! Something we need is direct cgm to smartwatch integration to become an industry standard, something dexcom has been promising for a long time

@@mitch993 I personally dont want any medical device working off a smart watch, or phone. I enjoy the bnb integrity of my medical info kept private.

Sibonics has already done this in China, the sensor could be directly connected with HuaWei, oppo and sibionics watchs without phone@@mitch993

How much was the sensor? I pay out of pocket .. so between insulin, other meds as a T1D .. I like to be able to buy wholesome food and pay my rent . Technology sadly isn't accessible to all where I live in Canada due to our inadequate hand outs from the Canadian government to each province.

Did yours say expired when trying to use it too?

@@aizawasscarf8927 nope.. worked fine out of the box

I loved the g6. Upgraded the g7

Type 2 is totally reversible.... you could be med free

Did you buy from local pharmacy or directly from company? Where is the data stored? How much did it cost?

@@user-hn6cu8ds9v I got it as a trial from my GP. To buy it you can get it directly from their online store., and with ALL CGMs your data is stored on your phone, backed up and can be sent directly to your physician electronically

I've had really bad issues with in inaccurate libre 2 sensors too, especially in the last few months. It's anecdotal I know but I cycle a lot and have muscly legs but puny arms. After 6 faulty sensors on the trot I tried putting a libre on the front of my thigh and it worked great. Last 2 sensors have been perfect! Could be coincidence, but...

7.2 mmol/l? I have my low alarm at 3.9 and high at 8.

And I always look at the trend rather than the actual value.

@@dbtest117 I think the OP was meaning that the libre was reading way WAY higher than 7.2, so if he had bolused for 16 when he was actually 7.2 then he would've been in trouble. I've been there too, although not quite as bad as that

@@lozetchells9164 I understand. But there the trend is important. Also I don’t bolus the whole amount at once. Hmm maybe he’s injecting and not using a pump. I mean with a pump you know the active amounts of insulin also.

How can i get the product please

Thanks for sharing! I’m glad you’re happy with it!

How much price

Can be extended up to 24 days

@@ahmadazzam8107 Yes, while the website lets me choose my currency and has a shopping basket, I'm failing to see any way to see any prices or actually add anything to the basket.

How were you able to get ongoing sensors? I'm interested in it, but wasn't sure how to get an actual RX for it.

Hey man this is the only thing I can get in Africa and wanted to know is it worth it after 6 month ?

The blood sugar clock is called SigarPixel. It reads data from both Dexcom and FreeStyle Libre wirelesly. You can get it on the link below. I absolutely love it btw customtypeone.com/?ref=typeonetalks

@@TypeOneTalks Incredible! Thanks for everything you do! 🤘🏾🩸

whats the monthly cost?

@@lmc4964 Around 70USD for 1 CGM. I also use another brand called AIDEX

How happy are you with the App?

@@7114TheLegends helpful for detecting my blood sugar all day

Does the needle stay in? I thought it would only poke and retract like the tools for traditional glucose measurement.

​@@MetalheadAndNerd It stays in and does not retract.

The needle doesn't stay in.. it's a synthetic filament that does which is inside the hollow needle. The needle is only for delivery and as its microfine you don't feel a thing

don't listen to trolls...the need its not staying, its flexible filament that wont get in when its applied. really comfy, nothing to worry about

The needle doesn't stay in, and you don't even feel it when the sensor is being applied

Agreed. They also removed the daily average BG, which I found a very useful metric for how I'm doing

What does co efficient variation mean?

i had the same feeling, a bit more accurate then Libre 2. I also tested this one recently but my son bought me a few libre..4 more, so after i finish those ill buy this one.

@@havencat9337 What surprised me more is the quality of the overpatch its fantastic. With the plastic surround and the way you attach it making it flawless every time. Libre and dexcom could learn from this.

and can it be calibrated?

No.. its supposed to come pre-calibrated ..

So, how was your experience so far?

Not good. Reading is way off compared to blood sample reading and not reliable at all. I stopped using it before the 2 weeks validity period

The applicator needle isn’t the same as the filament. The filament stays inside of the skin, but the needle does not. The first time he showed the needle, and the second time he showed the filament.

The needle inside the Libre applicators is also not friendly looking! They just made it so you don't usually see it.

@@qcshari I don't know what you are seeing, but there is no separate needle. The filament is the needle. Have a look at the applicator and then the sensor when you take it off.

@@pooh4519 The filament is not the needle. The filament cannot pierce the skin on its own; it must be implanted by a needle. Every CGM has a filament attached to the sensor that remains in the skin when the sensor is applied. And every CGM has a needle inside of the applicator used to pierce the skin and insert the filament. The needle does not remain inside of the skin, but the filament does. Once the sensor is applied, the needle inside of the applicator retracts and can no longer be seen.

@@qcshari So explain how the needle passes thru the sensor to pierce the skin, and then retracts and puts the filament in!

I find the software easier to get around than the libre from Abbott and it's slightly more accurate when calibrating the levels with a finger stick blood Glucose monitor. I wore both (one on each arm ) for 2 weeks to calibrate and compare both

You can reverse T2 by going very low carb/keto/carnivore. This is under 30 g carbohydrates per day. Yes it's possible. See Dr. Ken Berry. Why be stuck with diabetes when you can reverse it????

公司已经推出了手表.

Dang how did you get it so cheap? My insurance is being frustrating with pricing and choice with my first attempt in trying to get into a CGM. My insulin I get discounted with manufacturer coupons. Are you doing the same with the CGM?

@@jlil89 my insurance covers the Dexcom and Libre, but at different copay rates. They didn't tell me this. I just started using the Libre and payed the $75 copay every month. When I switched to the Libre3 and it most always failed to scan in, I switched to Dexcom G7. The insurance people told me that the copay for that was $75 for a 3 month supply. So they give me 9 sensors every 3 months for $75 which comes to $25 a month. I got lucky with the insurance. However, they make me pay a lot for my glaucoma eyedrops.

Well, Appel doesn't like developers.. and we don't like it either

AIDEX CGM的产品准确度一般，还经常断线

I agree but how long have you tried Libre? If you've only used say 1-3 sensors you may be a bit early to be disappointed. Some sensors are awful but others are stunning and 2 weeks of perfectly accurate readings is a joy and gives your fingerstick fingers time to recover!. I dunno if this variation in sensors (some being great and some awful etc) is due to irregularities in their manufacture but more likely it is just a bad / unlucky site (eg too close to or too far from a tiny blood capillary / in a relatively unvascularised piece of tissue / clot formed around needle etc). If you carry on with Libre for ~4-6 months, you will see this variation between sensors and learn how to deal with it. (If you have already used Libre for this sort of time and it's not for you then fair enough!). There are ways to get around inaccurate sensors without immediately binning them. 1) on the Libre reader (dunno if you can do it on the app) for regular errors (eg if it always reads too low / high because unlucky sensor site / blood clot around sensor etc) just change the range on your reader graph. (Eg if my range is 4-8mmol (say!) but reader always reads 1.2 - 1.4 mmol or so too high, I just change my range up ~1.3mmol to 5.3 - 9.3mmol then, tho the actual readings are still high, they / the graph appears within my normal range. It does mean your reader will show false high values (which messes up your long term stats for endo but other sensors will read low compensating overall long term averages) but at least I can see from the graph if I am in my normal range without having to keep mentally subtracting / adding 1.3 to each reading etc). 2) you can always do fingersticks alongside the Libre (defeats the point I know but often you find (for example once the clot around the filament dissolves) over a few days, the sensor goes back to being accurate so can be used for the rest of its life with good readings). 3) In the UK at least, if a sensor is poor, take several photos of its readings and trend versus your fingerstick values (when trend is flat) and send them to Abbott (online) who usually replace bad sensors free of charge. 4) If you have an iphone get the Shuggah app. Much better than the Libre 2 app in my opinion and much better algorithm I feel, as used alongside the Libre reader and fingersticks, it appears (for me) to always be closer to my fingerstick result. However even better than that, you can calibrate your sensor in the app (single or multiple values) if it is reading badly. Usually I just use the default "sensor algorithm" option in Shuggah which works great and as I mentioned is usually better then the Libre reader but for inaccurate sensors then switching on calibration is great. The calibration options mean you can really draw in the accuracy of most sensors and are great to use when you have a poor sensor. (Incidentally, Shuggah also gives coeff variation as mentioned in the video above). (Don't think Shuggah works on Android / other phones but there are other 3rd party apps out there which will ink to Libre so worth looking to see if they allow calibration). I have to say, I try for very tight control (3.9-5mmol/70-90 mg/dl) using Bernstein type diet) and Libre was far too inaccurate / slow for this so I used multiple fingersticks for years. However with Shuggah, I have managed to get some use out of Libre as a helpful adjunct despite the problems with some of the sensors that you mention so worth considering. (As a final point I found Shuggah to be brilliant so multiple thanks to all those who developed both it and xdripiOs if they are reading this - lifesavers, thank you!) Regards

@@rayfostyn first one ever.. point is, that i had to find out whether i have Lada or not. a1C s measuring too high, while everything else is fine. I also have not enough money to be able to afford a sensor every 2 weeks. I cross checked with 8 finger pricks and it confirmed that the sensor is moe or less consistently too high by 17..23 points. From the course I onclude that the pancreas is working fine I still have a question, you probably know the answer: my body fat is low (10%) and i do not have fat tissue on the arm at all. Can it be that if it reaches int the muscle that readings are too high?

@@monnoo8221 Hi. I don't know to be honest but I would think (guess!) that (1) even with no fat, skin is usually at least 0.5cm thick which is length of sensor filament so i doubt if it (the sensor filament/electrode) is fully reaching muscle. (2) I also have very little fat on the back of my arm also but for the above reason still don't think sensor is reaching muscle. (3) if it did reach muscle I would expect it to hurt when the muscle contracts (as muscles move (ie they contract unlike connective tissues) and would pull on the relatively fixed filament?) and (4) don't worry, even if the filament is reaching muscle (which I am guessing not from the above), it should not make the sensor read higher necessarily as tissue fluid glucose equilibrates with plasma glucose whatever tissue you are using. (If anything I would guess muscle will equilibrate faster than less vascular tissue. Muscle might also use up glucose faster but basically my guess is that the sensor is not reaching muscle despite no fat and, even if it is, that is not a cause for specific sensor inaccuracy so don't worry on that score). Interesting that you found your sensor consistently high by 1 - 1.3 mmol (17 - 23mg/dl). I often find sensors read about this much falsely high (just like the example I gave in my first answer!). I think Abbott did have some problems with sensors reading a bit high. Still the answers I gave in first answer should help address this even tho it is irritating when a sensor is not accurate. Just a final thought, if your glucose levels are all fine on fingersticks (I assume this is what you mean when you say your pancreas works well?) and yet your HbA1c is still high, there can be other causes for the raised A1c - google "Causes of false high HbA1c" to see if any of these apply (anaemias / haemoglobinopathies for example among other things can cause this false result...) The above comments are just my overall thoughts in reply to your question. I hope they are of help (but the answers may be wrong despite me trying to be helpful. They are however what I think!).
