glucose (on a chart) going up and dropping, going up and dropping, and so forth
– the pump with the Enlite 3 sensor took those numbers and fixed the edges on a
level plane and vertically. It prompted less highs and lows, furthermore made
them shorter – the CGM chart looked more like moving waves and not a heart
screen. Inside the three and a half days that I was utilizing the shut circle partition,
my blood glucose didn't go above 210 or underneath 60."
