Interesting stuff. We can only hope that the advancements will keep coming and that we won’t hit a lull where there is no progress for some period of time. Unfortunately, as with any technological advancements, there are always the slow periods…
That being said… I don’t think I’ll ever be able to consider the Senseonics Eversense implantable CGM. Even considering it’s good for 90 days at a time, there is still the external component and the insertion procedure cannot be good for building up scar tissue!

With Animas backing out of the industry and encouraging everyone over to Medtronic, I’ll be following the Medtronic sensors a bit closer given the tight integration with their pumps. I can’t see myself continuing to use Dexcom sensors if I plan to use the 630g/670g with CGM capabilities, even with as much as I prefer them.
