"Type 1 since '89. Sugars will spike & fall due to loss of appetite etc in this heat, best thing I ever had was to get those libra lifestyle sensors on prescription. Real time glucose readings to your phone without the drama of finger pricking. I find it can micro-manage so much easier. " Yep its a life saver also meal replacement drinks like Huel helps alot when you don't want to eat due to the heat. | |||

"I am type 2, diagnosed last August. No clue about my sugars as I don't test, apart from my annual diabetes check- it was a huge shock to me, not being asked to test regularly. I do have a little bit of a headache but that's not unexpected, in this heat. Otherwise, it's business as usual. " I am in a similar situation diagnosed about 3 years ago just cut down on carbs in diet & its sort of under control , I have never been good with heat | |||

I've been offered libra a few times but I've always been put off by the thought of having something attached to my arm. I think it would annoy me. (I don't wear a watch because they annoy me) Is it worth getting? | |||
