I have a new glucose monitoring set up to test out. A miao miao (yes I
thought that was a street drug too) is a device that fits over the libre
sensor, scanning by NFC every 5 minutes. Results are transmitted via
bluetooth to the xDrip app on my phone and also to my smart watch. I'm now
using my sony SW3 as a regular smart watch rather than strapped to my
libre sensor so I no longer need it to have NFC capability. I haven't
yet upgraded the firmware back to it's factory settings so it doesn't
work as a collector device, only as a follower.
Paul
also has xDrip on his phone and is set up as a follower. I did explain
to him that this would mean regular alarms when my glucose was low or
high but he seemed okay with that. Within a few days he was suffering from extreme alarm fatigue and changed his
settings to drastically reduce the number of alarms he received. He now only gets
alarms for low results and I have a 30 minute grace period to sort
things out before he is alerted.
I wear the watch continuously, except when charging it up. The battery lasts a full 24 hours and it only takes an hour to recharge.
