Re: [AFMUG] OT Jardiance can kill you
Yeah the v3 is kick ass, so much better than the older ones. I do love the warning of high doses of Vit C will kill the sensor ☺ I don’t even have T2D but use it to get a feel for what foods do what to spikes and such, helps make better choices.Though the tape on these doesn’t seem to be a good, lost a few / had to start using the covers to get the full 2 week out of them.

My insurance (which is self insurance and a third party administrator) is declining to pay for the monitor. ... There are a whole pile of monitors out there now.
