Living with Diabetes and Lapband

I've been using the Medtronics Minimed Sof-Sensors since this summer. It's gone well.

Years ago, I'd tried the Dexcom Seven system and found that I was allergic to something in the system, and I would end up rejecting them. I haven' had that problem with these. I've had some placement issues, but as I use them I get better at it and hadn't had an issue in quite a while.

The biggest side effect is that I'm getting better at checking my blood sugar and my A1C continues to go down. Weight has also continued to go down.
