[QUOTE="Jollymon, post: 2319420, member: 480011"] I have higher expectations than 3.9 to 10 mmols. It’s a bench mark, but I want to be better than that. I would hope that someday with better technology (better insulin, and better/faster more real-time test loop) we could achieve something closer to normal. I’ve always wanted to be normal, so that’s my goal. I’ve got a flat line on a cgm that regularly says my number range from 3.9 to 6.0. I do this manually. This isn't from a closed loop system. I don’t really trust the cgm- it’s slow, and the numbers vary. A meter can quickly tell me reality. But this is why I think 3.9 to 10 is a big window. I’m still hoping for the smart insulin assembly, where in the presence of high blood sugar encapsulated insulin will release itself. Then it’s just a matter of us having enough of the encapsulated insulin onboard. I think this would be a game changer- insulin that only goes to work when it’s needed and no need for a test loop.
