I am a type 2...AC1 was steady at 7.2 after surgery in February it shot up to 11.1 and doctor has no idea why but is leaning towards the fact my stomach is paralysis, Gastroparesis, and is causing the problem. Now wear a CGM on my arm. It helps me see where my highs are and helps doc pinpoint timeframe where meds will be the most helpful.

@Hawx Yeah I know, I'm just... Unbelievably lazy @Firedoc I need a pump and CGM but even with insurance they're a few thousand dollars. That's why i'm planning on moving to the UK or Canada, I know in the UK they're completely free.

it probably none of my business but I will ask anyways, Topher you have medical insurance? The reason I ask is my CGM only costs me $18.75 a month under my health insurance.
