It's compact, needle-free, easy to use and less painful than steel lancets. Arab Heal...

I started taking Slynd a little under 2 months now and have experienced extreme weight gain recently (10lbs in a week). I haven’t done anything to change my diet or exercise and other than the gain I feel fine. Does this pill have a high risk of weight gain?
Thanks for taking the time to do this step by step and showing the small details like the needle in the applicator. I was scared I had done something wrong at first. Then when you actually applied the sensor...I was brave and backed up the video and applied mine at the same time. Quirky, I know, but I was nervous about this step. Thanks again for each step in simple detailed attention. I appreciated it so much. Would not have downloaded the App if you had not suggested it. This will be easier than carrying around the sensor and also my phone!
My mom's Dr was supposed to help her with this and they won't even call her back and I called her Dr and they won't answer the phone 😡
Can we use more than 1 phone to collect data?
Do you need an iPhone to communicate with the watch? Which watch works with the G7 and Tslim, assuming I can use the watch and the Tslim tog?
Amlodipine caused me to have swollen ankles
I’m just starting the G7 I start it tomorrow
Can’t find the app
I’m confused!!! So when I get to the green pills I should take it like a normal pill at the same time or do I skip the green pill?
Isnt't Desogestrel used in the US/Canada? I think it is/has been the "standard" mini-pill in Europe at least before Slinda/Slynd and it has e.g. much longer missed pill window than 3 hours.
"Before you start your Sensor, choose which device you want to use. If you start the Sensor with the App, you will be unable to use the Reader to check your glucose or receive alarms."😢
Are there any other side effects like depression, anxiety, mood swings, etc?
Since it raises potassium, can it also give you liver and kidney problems?
Can you use any phone with the G7 , the G6 only Iphone
Don’t run eat with the readings from the first 12-24 hours. They are not reliable. Do a finger stick to check if you need to eat or use meds. Typically after 24 hours, the readings are closer to your BG monitor.
Just had to come off Amlo due to severe muscle pain, mimicking Gout. All symptoms went a day after stopping.
How long does it take to regulate periods? I started 2 months ago and my periods are still super bad 😢
I started today
I listened through your whole video to hear how to use the device that came with the package. Nit is lighter and easier than carrying my phone around. You neglected to cover it.
that needle is huge!
You didn't cover cost comparisons
Thanks for you video. Just setup mine today for the first time and followed your tips on how to get up and running, you were so much better than anyting else I've watched, so thanks again.
Gracias.😊
Taking slynd for heavy peri periods has worsened my situation. How long do I take it to “wait it out”? I am on my fourth month.
I am on my second month and wondering the same thing 😢
Thank you for your help
Anyone have an answer to my question? What CGM company selling in the US has the BEST customer service? It is so upsetting to be treated the way libre freestyle 2 has treated me, stress makes my glucose go up, just want some peace!
Did you now the senors expire???? I did not! After purchasing 6 months worth they refused to honor warranty to replace failed senors!
Hi..How do you remove the Libre 2 and is it pregnancy safe?
To pay 279.00 dollars for two sensors is a bit pricey
Very informative🙏🏻 But can i know if i’m protected from pregnancy in the 4 days of the placebo pills?
Yes you are.
Terminology on Cannabis vs Marijuana is not correct. Marijuana was created to propagandize and fearmonger people into thinking cannabis was unsafe
Hey amazing doctor lady since using this and change of diet & exercise my reading are stable in the region of 4.9 to 7.5 at max throughout the day the doctors are not so helpful or the diabetic clinic who supposedly be specialist , they just put me on loads of meds in the beginning so I decided do things via exercise and diet adjustments my mmol average is reading under 45mmol so should I just totally stop my meds and continue via diet and exercise , cause the government seem to just make you take pills rather than treat the problem help ❤😊
I'm really glad you're managing with diet and exercise! Amazing doctor lady haha
Ive been on Slynd since December 2023 abd am now experiencing breakthrough bleeding spotting without skippong a dose and idk what to do
How would this work if you have muscles? I feel as it would be more difficult since you’d have less fat.
Great video and explanation, thank you. One question, where is the 2nd sensor in the pack? I've been told by doctor and pharmacist that each pack has 2 sensors? After having done the first one I can't see where the second sensor is?
I couldn't pay attention to the application. I was lost in your eyes😅 I'll watch it again
Is this app available in every country or just specific ones?
Libre 1 is no longer being made.
My NP recommended me to switch from Lo LoEstrine to Slynd. I’m experiencing some hormone imbalance issues right now - will Slynd balance it out?
Does amlodipine cause erectile dysfunction in men?
I’m no doctor but I have seen e/d mentioned as a side effect of this medication.
I took Amlodipine for three months and by the time that three month were over I was sleeping 18 hours a day and was so depressed that I didn't care if I died in my sleep. I am too happy and love life to much to feel that way normally. So if you do take Amlodipine and find yourself sleeping more than normal STOP taking it and talk to your doctor. If the doctor tries to convince you to keep taking them,,,get another doctor.
Very helpful- thank you!
Please blood comes out when i apply for patient
Thank you. I just started this pill
You're welcome! All the best.
Remember to keep your phone within 6 metres to get readings.
Yup! I just did a video comparing all the differences. You can check it out here: czcams.com/video/yiwPr62zVnA/video.htmlsi=WOEGfzSTfMu9iiDA
The G7 over patch lifts easy. I have to use a patch over it within 3 days.
Oh no! I see a lot of other companies that make overpatches for the G7. Perhaps they're more durable.
Thank you for the information. One more subscriber has been added to your list.
Thank you for subscribing!!
Why no videos are showing a small plastic cover on the needle. I used it without removing and my sensor is useless now as it did not prick inside.
I'm not sure what small plastic cover you're referring to
what to do if it keeps showing error?
If it persists call Abbott and let them know about the error, they will help you troubleshoot.
very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome! Thank you for watching :).
