Late blooming (LADA) T1D here. I think that CGMs are a great quality of life improvement. I have Abbott Freestyle Libre's prescribed by my diabetologist every 3 months, and they work well with Glimp[1] and any android phone with NFC - the app has nice statistics that really correlate with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c - long term sugar level indicator) results from my checkups. You can (and should) calibrate the CGM results with prick tests in the Glimp app as well. It takes a long time testing what kind of carbohydrates work the best for you - how high / how fast your blood sugar levels rise, and how long they stay high. You have to keep yourself as close to the ideal range as possible, while are literally trying out every available carb in the pantry. I've tested all kinds of carbs to find out that potatoes and chickpeas are fine, and that rice is forbidden in my diet. So long kimchi fried rice, I will miss you.
