[QUOTE="VickiT11979, post: 393884, member: 53386"] Hi Engineer88, I'm sorry this reply is pretty late, I don't come on here that often & was also trying to let the dust settle wrt the alternative view that CGM is a waste of money. Anyway, I got my Vibe pump at the end of April then ordered the CGM starter kit for £500. I put my first sensor in on May 7th and it's still working & is accurate, that's 37days now. I wouldn't recommend doing this to anyone else, but I've not had any irritation or discomfort from it. The adhesive dressing that attaches it only lasted 2 weeks & then I covered it with Opsite flexifix which has kept it attached since then. If (and it's a big if) this continues I'll only need 1 sensor a month & annual cost will be more like £900 [/QUOTE]
