CGM's in australia
Hi guys :)
Does anyone know of/use a cgm here in australia? Do they leave you out of pocket a hell of a lot? Im into triathlons and wouldnt mind having a waterproof one but im having trouble sourcing one, let alone one that is affordable. I have inlaws that live in chicago, im tempted to find out how much they are in america but im hesitating because i presume access to the consumables of a cgm wouldnt be worth it. Thanks.
