I think I'm there. Still totally love love love it, but also could stand to whack it across the room when it's waking me up all night long saying I'm "LOW" and every time I test it's 75. Meh. (Or something a little stronger.) Yet right now, as I'm waiting for the old sensor to get thru it's 3 hours to "start sensor" again, I'm totally missing it and can't wait for it to come back on. (I keep checking to see how much longer until the grey shaded box is gone!) so pathetic. ;) I do love mine, even when it's annoying. And I hope Dex still loves me, even when he falls out of my waistband and hits the floor...even when I forget he's in my pants pocket for several hours...and even when I curse at him for throwing some ???s my way. I think he does still love me too. That's a good relatonship. >;)Sarahhttp://twitter.com/#!/sarahmartnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-82295682370742738182011-03-10T11:44:10.550-06:002011-03-10T11:44:10.550-06:00LIKE!LIKE!Zakaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440316449093523034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-78536166066169793132011-03-09T22:57:49.721-06:002011-03-09T22:57:49.721-06:00I just peed my pants a little bit with the comic o...I just peed my pants a little bit with the comic of the girl in the Team Unicorn shirt holding the shiny new Dexcom.

Thanks for the comment, and you bri...Hi Anonymous!<br /><br />Thanks for the comment, and you bring up a good point about accuracy. The Dexcom isn't as ferociously inaccurate as I've depicted it to be here (just as I normally don't have rainbows shooting out from behind me, either), but you're right that CGMs as they exist now are not at an acceptable level accuracy-wise for blind integration with insulin pump functionality. I'm looking forward to the day when they are - but until then, this will have to be "good enough", you know?<br /><br />P.S. To all - thanks for leaving comments here. Even if you don't agree with my view/presentation/ideas, I do want to hear what you're thinking. We can always respectfully disagree. :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857046266371772742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-18805800503960346662011-03-07T14:54:34.209-06:002011-03-07T14:54:34.209-06:00Thanks, all! :)Thanks, all! :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857046266371772742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-52651038306841322942011-03-07T14:46:30.006-06:002011-03-07T14:46:30.006-06:00Funny comic, but I can't help but think that i...Funny comic, but I can't help but think that if this continuous meter were attached to an insulin pump you'd be in a coma several times due to overdosing on insulin, thanks to the erroneously high sugar results.<br /><br />Seems like a death trap to me.
