I've been hearing about dexcoms on another diabetes forum. What is it? Does your child need to be on a pump?
Thanks

Hi here's a link for you hope it explains all. http://www.dexcom.com/ Bottom line is it's a CGM (a continuous glucose monitor) can be used with an animas vibe or a stand alone unit bought from advanced therapeutics in the UK
