    Another great episode. The Stelo was released just as I decided to take my diabetes management to the next level. It has been a real eye-opener. I am so thankful for CGM in general and for Dexcom going straight after the market segment with T2 and poor or no insurance coverage. As the first Stelo users approach one month of use, I would like to see a deep dive into Clarity.

    2 weeks into Stelo. Very educational. I will probably keep using it to keep my glucose in range so I can get to normal from prediabetes. Watching my daughter deal with type 1 means I am very motivated.

    I am using the Stelo and very pleased. Medicare would not cover a CGM because I don’t use insulin. This GGM gives me an opportunity to monitor my health.

      If you notice a pattern of lows while using the Stelo, the new Medicare rule will cover a prescription CGM. The Stelo app is not helpful but it integrates well with Dexcom's Clarity app, which can generate multi-day records and will show actual glucose levels below 70 (I had them in the low 50s).

    I'm having keeping the G7 on. They never last ten days. Last night while I spelt the sensor fell off and I can't get a new one till monday! I never had this problem with the G6 but I can't get that now. The glue just does not hold when I sweat and I sweat a lot here in Florida. Last month I had one only last four days. I have tried to complain but never get an answer. What a waste of money, great product electronically but physically they are poorly made. I've seen crap from China with a better track record then the G7.

      I put mine on the inside of my thigh on a tip from another user. Seems to work better than on the arm.

    I'm not quite sure where the existing news is about. Nothing new and nothing for type 1s, which is the important part. I thought about some new technology they are adding.

      @@归来少年 i paid for them and they did not send them to me. they do not have a phone # or a email to communicate, had to fight with a bot.
      they can"t help me unless i provide a serial number, how is that possible? after fighting with the bot they finally send me one. i paid for two of them.
      just not worth the aggravation. i have to file a claim with the credit card company.

      I'm pre-diabetic. I'm finding the Stelo is very helpful. However, two of three sensors failed or didn't install properly. The customer service bot is very glitchy and not always helpful. Dexcom needs to work on this. No way to talk to an actual person.
