Nice video, I bought Ambrosia Nightrider cgm to monitor glucose which works great with the Libre sensor, their alarm feature is very helpful during night, it also gives alarm alerts when readings are not in range.

Thanks for this video. Trying to help my mom with this as she has Type 2 and doesn't own a smart phone.

Thanks for your video. I've just purchased my starter kit of scanner and 2scanners..... Excited to receive it and get started. My finger tips are like steel, very painful steel at that. 6x day testing as I'm running very high. At mid 20s. Diagnosis of T1 late onset,,...... Gave my pancreas its p45 about 2years ago according to consultant and lots of gene testing...... Only got started on insulin regime 10days ago, but battled for several years with highs and lows. But finger testing is not good enough, especially when you are spending time driving for work, or rock-climbing etc..... Im hoping to get a good picture of my bg through the day. Gonna admit, I'm a wee bit worried about fitting the sensor though. TRUTH..... DOES IT HURT???? IS IT WORSE THAN THE DREADED FINGER TEST?

It's been around a year, did you get on well with the sensors and did they help improve your diabetes control? Did you get used to applying the sensor without too much pain?

these are so hard to get, even the cheaper Freestyle Libre. These CGMs should be mandatory.

Hi! Is it possible to activate a new sensor using a smartphone? I mean using sensor without using reader, phone only?
@diabeticmatty7 жыл бұрын
Bob Rovski yes it is possible to use the sensors on their own without using the reader. I don't own a reader I only use my phone with the sensors.

But you must be shure, your phone is equipped with NFC module, I think.

Damn..... I wish I'd read your comment before spending £138 (original was £156,but I got vat free???? ) I was led to believe that I had to use sensor to activate, then I could use app. Oh well.... Maybe I can tell myself that I am not going daft, as my phone might run out of battery sometimes lol......but a £70 cost to ensure that I keep it charged is a bit harsh :( . Did read about reimbursement from 1st Nov tho :)

So all I need is an android and a sensor? How often do sensors get changed? Have you tried zero carb keto? Good info
@diabeticmatty5 жыл бұрын
The sensor lasts 2 weeks, I think that is because of the glue that holds it on your arm. It's similar to plaster glue, it is waterproof I have been swimming with them on. All you need is a phone with NFC and the sensor can be activated by that. The app is easy to use and because it's so easy to test I pretty much waved my phone over my arm whenever I used my phone so I was testing up to 20 times a day. It's worth trying if you get the chance.

Do you have to scan the sensor to register a point on the graph? Or does the app capture every five minutes or something? Is there a way to export all the data points to a csv file?
@diabeticmatty5 жыл бұрын
The points on the graph are where I had scanned. The sensor does constantly take its own readings and records that data for 8 hours so if you didn't scan much then it is still shown on the graph.

Hey you can use Blucon on top your libre sensor which transfers the readings on their Linkblucon app which has many features. You can even get readings on your apple watch without phone. Your doctor can get your readings on his phone or laptop. Alarms are very helpful to get immediate alerts on high or low glucose levels. I'm fully satisfied with my libre sensor combination with blucon
@duartebraga47806 жыл бұрын
any way you can download the librelink data to the pc?
@diabeticmatty6 жыл бұрын
Duarte Braga I am not sure if you can see results on the computer. But it is possible to share your data with people if you have the libre link up app. I think this would be great for parents wanting to keep an eye on their children, or would be great if your results could go straight to a doctor.

There is libre view but for me doesn't work with the mobile app even if Abbott says that is compatible
