How do I extend my sensor beyond the 10 day hard stop?
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) is a method to track blood sugar levels throughout the day and night.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) systems continuously check glucose levels throughout the day and night, while the Blood Glucose Meters (Bgm) measureglucose levels at a single moment in time.
The BGM only provides a single glucose reading.Every five minutes, the systems can provide real-time, dynamicglucose information.
