Off cgms for the last few days, and feeling lost......

Well, I guess it finally had to happen. My Dexcom Seven system cgms got wet and kicked the bucket after a year or so of working 24 hours a day....
I had another one that I bought about a year or so ago as there was a billing mix up so I decided to bring that one to life. Well, older technology and a few mishaps along the way trying to get it updated, and I am currently without since about Sunday. AAAAaaaaaaggghhh!
You don't realize how much you depend on something until it is gone. I can truly say that my numbers have been worse since I have been trying to just manage with my meter. WOW...how did I ever do this before.
I can tell you from experience, if you are thinking about getting a CGMS.....it is a fabulous way to go...even with a few hiccups now and then.

Keep Going............................Peace, Bob
