[QUOTE="RP McMurphy, post: 231441, member: 43731"] I have used a Dexcom G6 extensively. It requires a prescription and costs more out of pocket, but I strongly prefer it because it can be calibrated. Calibration is important for accuracy when you are a non diabetic and swings in blood sugar are smaller. I believe that CGM’s will be the standard of care in 5-10 years. I found the data invaluable in understanding my glucose tolerance: it’s a powerful tool that provides real-time personalized feedback to specific food you are consuming (as well as other inputs….exercise, stress, sleep, etc.) I though I was eating low carb, but I learned that I am much more carb sensitive than I had thought. For some strange reason as a non diabetic I’ve had two different health insurance companies cover the cost, which I know is not standard. [/QUOTE]
