[Diabetes-Talk] opinion needed

[mdavisforalternatives at gmail.com]

Hello Joyce, 
I am just now reading this. 
A  big congrats on your 65 years with taking control  of your diabetes! 
I spoke with you last year regarding your use of the Medtronic pump and the concerns of being visually impaired and the limited independence as a blind consumer. I am still using the Tandem T-slim with control IQ along with the Dexcom G6. 
 with very, limited independence, as well.
*I have a friend here in town and asked him if he is able to use the mini med software with a watch. 
He is not using the watch and feels he would not be able to. 
* Seems like you are the lead with this one along with my friend and another Medtronic user, I've heard on this list. 
Looking forward to your thoughts and experiences😊 
Let us know, 
Thanks for the info, 
mary

Is any one using the Medtronic insulin pump 780 G and using the Smartguard ?
Has any one used the mini med software with an IWatch??

 

I understand that you bneed an IWatch series 9.

 

I am looking into getting the  IWatcgh with all the sales going on in the next few weeks.  I will love that I won't have to drag my IPhone with me all the time.

 

I have had my  ups & bno more downs  , but I have never been within normal limits like this.  

 

Thanksgiving nmarks my 65 years of Type 1 diabetes.  This pump might be the closes I will get to an artificial pancreas.
