xirian replied to Aysia's discussion 'Dexcom Data Manager 3 Software & Mac' in the group Dexcom Users"Unknown diabetic: did diadems actually work for you with the monopod?

separate data. It's not easy…"
xirian replied to Aysia's discussion 'Dexcom Data Manager 3 Software & Mac' in the group Dexcom Users"You'll have to dual boot using boot camp.
