No pump required for a CGM. While some pumps have their own CGM that
interacts with the pump, many are independent devices. The Dexcum is the
only CGM that's accessible however. At least, the app is accessible. But you
do not need a pump to use it.

I have one question about cgm.so can you use a cgm without an insulin pump.
If so I wil ask that of my endocrinologist when I see him next month. My
endocrinologist also has type 2 diabetes and he is a very nice and
knowledgeable guy on the matter.  he prescribed me inhalable  insulin
Afrezza.  So I will be seeing how that works. That  is an inhalable rapid
acting insulin .  he also gave me toujio  instead of lantice  for long
lasting insulin and  once a wweek Trulicity he said its acts like a hormone
thathe body does not produce wen you hd type 2 diabets for a long time. I
will b seeing how this works for me. So ffar so good on keeping track.  a
