Testing Alternative FreeStyle Libre Sensor Locations

As we all know, living with diabetes often involves a constant balancing act, requiring individuals to diligently monitor their blood sugar levels. The FreeStyle Libre sensor, which is becoming a popular flash glucose monitor in many countries, has revolutionized the way people manage their diabetes by providing a non-invasive and convenient method of tracking glucose levels.

While the traditional (and most advisable) placement of the sensor on the back of the upper arm has proven effective, many of us have tried the sensor on alternative sites.
This funny video done by my mate from Australia, Jack, delves into the exploration of testing alternative FreeStyle Libre sensor locations, shedding light on the potential benefits, challenges, and considerations for the ones of us which are always trying to explore different alternatives to improve our diabetes management and quality of life.
Also, cheers Jack for rocking the Everything is OK tee and doing this great video about alternative placement for Freestyle Libre!
