Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM)

Has anyone used or is thinking about trying a CGM?

They are used to monitor your blood glucose level and many health/diet related authors have been recommending them recently.

You might be able to get a free 14 day monitor here depending on where you live:

I am thinking about trying one… only thing is I hate needles, and having one stuck in me for 2 weeks sounds awful! :lol:

Anyone used them or thinking about it?
