I use a Medtronic 780g and have just started using G3 continuous glucose monitoring Spent years being told I wasn't dosing properly, wasn't absorbing properly, or was cheating with carb intake. CGM has been a game changer on less insulin with much better control. It does feel like I am a robot some days with wires and beepers and pumps attached but in the long run I suppose it's better than poor control..just wish I had access to the technology a few years earlier

I use the tslim and g6 and I love it! I really just couldn’t control my blood sugar with shots so it’s a lifesaver really
