Continuous Glucose Monitoring
This is a great tool to aid your diabetes management. This is useful especially for those using insulin or those concerned about hypoglycaemia. Continuous Glucose sensors are in place from 10 to 14 days and the glucose levels are shown on a meter or on your smartphone. The diabetes educator can also upload the data to evaluate.
