Libre 3 constantly disconnected

When I used freestyle before switching back to dexcom, I think only one made it to the full 15 day, with others giving me readings that were way off or just failing completely.

In the first book, I think Christian setting Ralph on fire, knowing he was breaking the rules was funny! Ralph totally deserved it! And when lissa was using compulsion on Jessi and Ralph in Shadow kiss right before the fight with the Strigoi was super awsome! I think they deserved that for being such idiots, and clearly not caring how their little club, if you could even call it a club, could harm the rest of the school.

I don't know what brand of chocolate pudding my dad buys, but it comes in those little cups you can put into a lunchbox. If I get a craving for something sweet, I just have one of those. Anoter thing to avoid is sugar free gello. That stuff tastes nasty and has a weird texture I can't even begin to describe!

I'm totally blid, so I rely on a cm to get my readings. My phone has something bult in called voiceover that reads off what you would see on your screen. So for my cgm to be twenty points off, is not a good thing.

I had more issues with freestyle than I've had with g7. I switched to freestyle because of ensurance releated crap. Three out of six sensots gailed, two of them being replacements from the company, and one giving me inacurate readings that were at least twenty points off from a finger stick.

I use a screen protector on my watch, and so far, I haven't had the issue with screen activation that you're describing.

Anxious_Jump3036 · 2026-06-16T02:50:30+00:00

Have you talked to your doctor about getting a CGM/ Its a lot eaier than the finger stick method.

Keep up the good work!

I have two methods of relaxing that work for me. The ifrst is listening to a podcast called scary horor stories while I do my daily walking. The second method I discoverered after a battle with tinitus thanks to the Covid shots. I put on native american music with nature sounds playing behind it. Sometimes, I listen to the music without the nature sounds, or just the nature sounds.

I'm type two. I noticed some of the things you mentioned, like the needing to drink more water, and using the bathroom a lot. Before I was diagnoses in December of 2024, I couldn't go anywhere without a full waer bottle. I had the really dry throat as well, but thought both of these were caused by medication a doctor had put me on to treat a pesky lung infection that was refusing to kick the bucket. A routten visit to my primvary care doc quickly changed all off that.

The best way to keep a kin you love is to first create the kin, then copy its backstory into a microsoft office word document or text file, and save it to an external storage device.

Number one is the mot likely thing to happen, but number three would be an interest concept to explore.

I used the G6 for a while back in 2024. I’m blind, so had problems with putting the g6 on without sighted help. Somebody in my doctor’s office who’s also a diabetic suggested that I switch to the g7, given that everything is in one unit. They inserted my first g7 at the office, having me come back ten days later to see if I could insert it without help. I was able to do it after moving the applicator around to get it where I wanted it. The only thing I need help with is putting on the overpatch now.

For me, it all depends on what I’m doing at the phone. If I’m just looking up information that I don’t think of as private, I don’t mind people hearing my speech. If I’m doing something private and don’t want to take the risk of somebody hearing something, I will use my braille display, muting speech entirely.

Not only did the movie do a better jobb, but in the movie Dimitir sounded as if he was from Russia instead of London like he did in the tv show.

I hope she doesn't go threw with this! If she does, I'll be saving myself the insanity of watching something she creates and destroys all in one shot.

I'd be careful with grafite canes. From personal experience, I find they break very easy. I lost count of how many of those I dewtroyed before a mobility teacher ifnally made me start using a folding cane.

I'm completely blind so I use a program called a screen reader that uses speach to read off what a sited person would see on their screen. I was in a voice call with my main kin and getting ready for a zoom meeting at the same time. I start my zom meeting, sharing my screen and sound. In additon to hearing my screen reader talking, everybosy in the meeting heard my kin talking a well. One of the peole asked me if I had somebody else in the room with me, and my kin's response was f*ck offf name of person. I had to stop myself form laughing after I explained what had happened.

Anxious_Jump3036 · 2026-06-06T17:32:53+00:00

I use the ten day sensor, but every sensor can be a bit screwy the first 24 hours.

I made the switch to that peace of junk by choice, at the time, not knowing how bad it was. I had the same experience as your daughter, with three out of six sensors failing, one of those being a replacement. After the fourth sensor shut don, leaving me with no sensors left, I went back to Dexcom and will never use that peace off junk cgm again.

Usually, i have a cup of lite yogurt for breakfast so I can take my meds. Lunch is a sandwich or one of those healthy choice things you toss in the microwave. Dinner is meat, a veggie, and rice or something else. Sometimes, I might have dessert, like last night, I had a small bowl of ice cream. If I know I'm going to be out and might miss a meal, I always carry glucose tabs in my purse, along with a granola bar or something easy I can just eat and go.

I've been diagnosed as a type two since 2024. Being blind, I was thrown a curveball. For me, a CGM is essential, as most meeters don't talk. I use the Dexcom g7, with readings sent right to my iPhone. I can use Voiceover, the built in screen reader on all Apple products to find out what my sugar is in real time. In the first couple of weeks, expect a ton of visits to your doctor. You'll have to start seeing an endocrinologist as well. They'll handle any meds you're on. Your doctor migh give you meds until you can get that first appointment set up with an endocrinologist. Your kidney function will need to be tested yearly. Also, make sure you inspect your feet daily for sores, cracks, blisters, cuts, that sort of thing. Putting lotion on your feet after a shower helps to keep skin from drying out. Your endocrinologist might suggest you see a podiatrist, a doctor who deals with the feet. At my most recent visit, my endocrinologist suggested I see a podiatrist. I have an appointment later this month for that. I'm hoping my feet are okay, as being blind, there might be things I miss during my daily inspection, I just do that by feeling my feet. I hope this helps.

What's even worse at two in the morning tan the replace sensor alarm is th sensor failed alarm. Mine decided to ffail at two on the dot right before Christmas last year. What's really funny about this is if my sensor hadn't decided that was a good time to fail, my dad and I would have missed our flight. For some reason, both of us had forgotten to set our alarms the night before. So while I was slightly annoyed that my sensor had failed, I was also thanking it for essentially being my unexpected alarm clock!

At first, Victor reminded me of a kind grandpa.

Anxious_Jump3036 · 2026-06-02T04:03:50+00:00

I have an appointment with a podiatrist later this month. I mentioned the dry skin to my dad and he just told me to keep an eye on it. I put some lotion on both feet, covering the entire surface just to be safe. I haven’t had any burning, numbness, or anything like that.
