[Diabetes-Talk] Taking out the libre censor

Sat Jan 19 02:57:26 UTC 2019

I move the camera around the cencer as I was shown where it will start 
when it is ready.
I am told that I have three days left.
So that means Sunday correct?
If I change it on Sunday then I don't start getting readings until Monday.
