TIL I can get a 9 foot roll of paper into my Crosstrek. Probably could haul a 10 foot roll but it would have been right up against the front windshield. No passengers allowed on this trip.
To get one thing out of the way first: my doctor wanted me to use a Dexcom but the insurance won't cover it and I can't afford it. So my option for occasional cgm use is the Freestyle. I liked the Libre 2 and got used to it, and it worked well for me. Figures it would get discontinued. So my doctor gave me a prescription for the Libre 2 Plus.
After installing the different app, first thing I noticed was I no longer had to tap my phone on the cgm to get the reading. Awesome, and less noticeable in public, yay. But later I realized something else: if I didn't have my phone nearby, I wasn't getting any data from readings. The only numbers I could get was when I had my phone nearby.
So, here's my problem: at work, I'm not supposed to have my cellphone with me when I'm on the clock. I occasionally have to use it for website verifications, but I'm expected to put it back in the locked cabinet as soon as that is done. So I was only getting readings while I was eating: nothing about how high my bs was going in between meals. Not helpful, and only different from finger sticks by the amount of pain involved (as well as being usually slightly lower than the finger sticks).
Did I miss a setting somewhere to have it store data until the phone is nearby again? Or is this simply the expectation that people never, ever have their phone further than 15 feet away at any given point in time?
