So for my spreadsheet starting 15 July I have been using the human meter Contour Plus with strips. However, my family members are not very comfortable using the ear pricking meters. We have previously used the FreeStyle Libre Continuous Glucose Monitoring system.
If I switch now (as I need to go back to work: I live in Bangkok, Thailand and my parents with Shorshe in India) what do I need to be aware of? Will there be differences in figures and hence, will the dosage need to be adjusted differently?
If using Contour Plus, how frequently should she be monitored? Should she be allowed to free graze just in case she experiences a dip in BG in the late hours of night/early morning when it might be difficult to monitor her?
I really need support and handholding. I really have to get back and am feeling very guilty. I am planning to take her to Thailand with me in October (though this is fraught with hurdles, chief among them lack of direct flights in an airline that will permit her to travel in the cabin with me).
