Sensor Error!

Sunday, I got an alert on my CGM that the sensor ended. That is a normal alert. It means I must change out my sensor in my body to put in a new one. (in case you couldn't figure it out lol) My CDE suggested that I put the sensor in the night before, right before bed so that it will get its "feet wet" so to speak? Yes, we know sensors...

Well, here I am....

Well, here I am...a brand spankin' new diabetic. I was diagnosed yesterday so this is bound to be an adventure. Once the urge to drive over a cliff passes I guess I will get down to business and see what I can do about all this. Two of my grandparents are diabetics so I do have someone close to count on for...
