    I am a pharmacist, and these new devices perplex me. Drug companies used to send sales representatives (aka “drug reps”) out to pharmacies to show off their new stuff and educate us about them. They don’t do that any more. Your video has shown me what I need to know, thank you!

    THANK YOU HW!!! I walked my Bestie through this process but with Libre 3. Finding, watching, and listening to you before she applied the sensor, and then applying it had us high-fiving-it-up-with-a-booty-bump like we use to do as undergrads in college.Thank you for being such a great instructor--you are a stress destressor.

    @waitnsea 2 года назад +4

    Thank you so much for your video… I have had Type 2 Diabetes for 10 years and have always hated the needle pricks the most. I watched another video before yours that showed how to do it but it didn’t mention the iOS app at all. So for my next sensor I will be switching to the app for sure. Thanks again, sometimes its easy to get down about our struggles with Diabetes but seeing you smile and show how easy it was, definitely gave me confidence and made me smile as well. I have liked/subscribed and enjoyed your video very much.

    I’m just now getting serious about a sensor. I like the idea of continuous monitoring. And thanks for explaining that the needle is only the insertion mechanism for the little fiber “wire” that reads the blood glucose continuously. I thought that big needle stayed in your skin!!! Can you see why I didn’t want a sensor??? YIKES!!

  • @nicolejohnson5377

    @donnaclarecerichie8667 Год назад +1

    Thank you so much. I was just prescribed the Freestyle Libre 2. I am not ok with needles but with diabetes you have to get over that. I have been scared to put the FL2 on. I was scared to do it incorrectly and end up wasting an expensive sensor. I love your video! Super informative, super easy and thank you for being so positive it really helps me not to fee scared about messing up or the needle. I have definitely LIKED your video and SUBSCRIBED! Thank you again for the super-helpful video I truly appreciate you and the information so much. 🤗💐💖

      @joannehirsch3061 2 года назад

      Yes! I have a terrible time removing the cap containing the sensor. It's a struggle 100% of the time. Once done, though, everything about this system is miraculous. The variations of readings compared to my glucometer seem to level off periodically and become to near agreement. Hope I'm making sense.🤔

      @@staceybullen5006 That doesn't seem helpful. I'm switching from Dexcom which scanned even with a hybrid case on my phone. Dexcom also allowed both the reader and the phone to be used at the same time. I have hypoglycemia as opposed to diabetes and just didn't like that the Dexcom wouldn't allow me to adjust the sound level of the alarm or adjust the alarm level (my endocrinologist wants the low set at 60 so I sleep better). I'm not sure now if I should use the phone.
