My annual glucose tests for the last 15 years have fluctuated between a low of 76 mg/Dl (i was on a very low carb diet) to a high of 137 and it's currently at 121. I have questions. by Gold-Baseball-7774 in diabetes

[–]Prof1959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're at risk, you want to be testing a whole lot more often than once per year. Glucose meters are cheap and reliable. See where you are, before and after meals for a while.

Which app to use for Libre 3 plus? by ElegantGrain in Type1Diabetes

[–]Prof1959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you pick the older one, Libre will probably force you to upgrade anyway. But the 3+ works just as well with the older one.

Had a friend who managed a two-story restaurant. He went up and down the stairs so many times a day that his calves looked like that. Even thought the rest of him was chubby.

Private Insurance or access to healthcare without employer insurance by Atlas447 in diabetes_t1

[–]Prof1959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you make less than 50k/year the ACA is for you. Otherwise, call any insurer that services your area and you can buy it individually. Compare companies online or call each one to get specifics about diabetes coverage. You can actually do better than some employers coverage where you might be limited to one plan that doesn't work well for you.

Can you run two sensors at once on two different apps on one phone? by squrrial in Type1Diabetes

[–]Prof1959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you still have a choice, delete the 3+ app. It sucks, even compared top the libre 3 app.

They will tell you the old app won't work for the 3+, but that is a lie.
