I dove into CGMs a little bit about a year ago, mostly just for fun. Yes, I paid money to some online prescription mill for CGMs (Abbott Freestyle Libre 3, IIRC), and then put one in my arm (the applicator is a short syringe section that has the monitor tube threaded into it, so the tube stays in your arm and your skin under the monitor remains broken) for a couple weeks. Just to see how various foods would affect my blood glucose, to see whether the “facts” I’m telling my kids about the glycemic index of various foods actually has the expected impact on a measurable result. You know, as you do. For fun.
(It actually was fun, and I’ll do it again when the data ecosystem improves.)
