Suggest Economically Reasonable Ways Of Controlling Diabetes
I am a 65 year old type 1 diabetic. My sugars are hard to control, and my doctor suggested a meter that monitors sugars continuously. I checked the meter she recommended, but there were monthly fees and automatic updates with it. Seemed expensive. Any alternatives?
