I’m wondering if there’s a group of people that cgm just doesn’t work. I’m on a 4th CGM system and am just not impressed with it. The numbers don’t match. The delay is crazy. Sometimes it just seems to do its own thing. I’m wondering if I’m just in a group that should not attempt to use these things. Maybe I’m just expecting more of these things that they can produce.
CGM said my bs was in the tanks all afternoon. My meter said I was fine. Every time I looked at the cgm I was tempted to correct, but my meter said to do nothing. So I did nothing, and I was fine.
If I’m only supposed to look at it for trending, my trends are good. From past experience I’ve leaned to not trust cgm, and today reinforced this. I’m just wondering if I’m in some kind of group-set that cgm just doesn’t work.
Today I did a tough drive in some really lousy weather. The roadway was an ice rink. I needed this cgm tool to work, and I just wasn’t impressed.
