I can guarantee you, from my personal experience of being diabetic for 30 years, that every day—and in the most incredible ways—I have managed to “almost kill myself.” Whether when I used finger-prick testing, sensors, injecting insulin with pens, or managing insulin with a pump. Our life is always a delicate balancing act between too little, too much, and way too much—the kind where this time I really kick the bucket
By personal choice I use a commercial CGM (if I could “touch it,” I’d be firmly on the side of certainty about killing myself through sheer stupidity), but reading something like “associated with” really makes me angry. Before making such subtle insinuations about the open-source world (the source of the revolution of the last 10 years in this field), regulatory bodies should open their eyes to what is actually happening with the quality of current sensors and the real problems they are causing.
And strength to you. I had a business partner for some time that was much like you and every time he'd be 10 minutes late for an appointment I'd get nervous and if it was more than an hour I'd be on the phone to his family to check up on him.
