I misunderstood what he wrote due to confusing phrasing.
Not OP. But a 40 plus year type 1 diabetic. Who knows from experiance how much CGM improove treatment for newer T1ds. Im now legally blond due to them not existing in the past. As are a high % of T1ds my age..
Sorry but phrasing seems like a bad excuse.
Your crossed out comment shows You clearly knew enouth from his pheasing ro recognise you were giving medical advice to a diabetic with out the qualifications to do so.
His phrasing was perfect. And i really would rather you not try to excuse your input when. So many medical profesionals are trying to encourage the usu of CGM technology. The consrant 5min rwading provide way more control information then any periodic test can.
That said. The watch is just a nice add. Bur a good reason to want one.
No use for my vision but would have loved the option 30 plus years ago. Would likely have good vision now if I had access to CGMs then.
I misread due to confusion. I think that that should be clear enough. There is no need to dogpile and make a stinky poop here. Many people treat smartwatch sensors as critically accurate for medical purposes.
