Hi
Since my recent accident and researching more surrounding my type 2 diabetes I have been having a lot of adverts for smart watches that monitor blood sugar readings, they are normally of unknown brands and was wondering if anybody had any experiences of these to share with a Newbie

So far, there is no technology that doesn't pierce the skin, that'll accurately do blood sugar readings... They seem to be working on it though, so save your money for the time being. Who knows, in the future...

Hi
I have send numerous e-mails to these watch manufactures requesting information regarding BG monitoring, to date not one has replied. In my opinion they are a scam
