Hello @Andres_Javier, I'm sorry you're going through these hard times. Managing diabetes is already exhausting in itself, and if we add a case of depression on top of that, everything becomes more com…
Hi @Ruthbia, I'm glad the sensor works well for you. Regarding what you mentioned about including the measurements in the clock, I have it with GlucoDataHandler and it works perfectly.
Hi @Ruthbia I've only used Dexcom One+ and they generally work pretty well for me. The first 12-24 hours are sometimes a bit vague, but it settles over the course of this first day.I recommend you do …

@Sherpa41 it will be cheaper for you to make peace with the CAP. I practically don't use the glucose meter, and with the ones they give me at the CAP I have more than enough.
In the end, each one is a world.I was taking metformin for two more years (before starting insulin), and I did not have any additional discomfort or symptoms. Talk to your endocrinologist to see if be…
