While I agree that CGMs may not be perfect, and they are worse for some people than for others, I still stand firm on the opinion that they are life changing.

- My understanding of how my blood reacts to various foods has increase by orders of magnitude
- My level of comfort with my blood sugar getting too low, especially when I'm sleeping, has vastly increase
- The number of times I've gone into a low blood sugar reaction and had to have an ambulance called has dropped from once a year (sometimes more) to never.
Sure, it's wrong sometimes. I don't use a pump. I do manually test my blood sugar (finger prick) wheneven it feels "off" compared to what the CGM says. But overall, my life is so much better with the CGM than before it that I just can't say enough good things.
