[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2324864, member: 372207"] Hi [USER=531906]@TimberYardBen[/USER] , have you already looked into the i-port? It's a device you need to insert once every 3 days, and then you can inject in the port instead of your skin for the next 3 days. I think it might be very helpful for you, even though I have no experience with it myself. Who knows, it might even be a way for you to get used to regularly taking your insulin and make it easier to do injections 'the old fashioned way' too, after a while. If you want to self fund a CGM, I agree Dexcom is first choice. On the other hand, the Freestyle Libre is much cheaper, and you can try it as a one off, scanning it with your phone without anything else needed than one sensor. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
