[QUOTE="Bcgirl, post: 2754858, member: 569488"] I’ve used both a libre and Dexcom g7. Both were good for trends, but for me they just didn’t give great readings. I was always double checking with test strips making it very expensive. first 24 hours were awful. With the dexcom that made it good for only nine days (but still unreliable). Very expensive! It’s worth it for peace of mind when you are really unsure, but I wouldn’t use one again unless I really needed to. It can also cause too much focus on blood sugar as you’re always looking at your numbers. Fun but not fun…. yes, give it a go to see your trends, why not? It can be very interesting (I did an ice cream experIment awesome to see the dramatic sugar rise). Just be aware that the accuracy is not great. Hmmm…maybe it’s just my body [/QUOTE]
