Anyone else about to start the Zoe glucose monitor test?

Tomorrow is test day, hoping it helps to sort out my headaches and tiredness!

My glucose monitor kept me up all night, every time I rolled into my arm I woke up!

I'd be interested to hear your honest thoughts about it. Have looked into it many times but the price is so high I couldn't justify spending it on something that I'm not 100% sure about.

I'll keep you updated. So far it's mainly annoying me. The monitor isn't uncomfortable during the day but uncomfortable enough when you roll on it that I woke up roughly once an hour last night.

I'm also doing test day today. I have found the glucose monitor ok but thankfully I sleep on my back so didn't notice it.

unsure as to why non diabetic people
need this? My daughter has type 1 diabetes and so wears a glucose
monitor 24/7 as the alternative would be several painful finger pricks a day.

Hope your test day goes well. Just trying to force down the blue lunch cookies!

Well the blood test was a disaster - no blood at all so now I have to repeat the cookies and blood test with a new kit.

Oh no, have they agreed to send you some more?
