• Dexcom / Freestyle / Omnipod 5 confusion?

    From _@21:1/5 to All on Sat Jul 30 11:43:24 2022
    So, when reading about the new Dexcom G7
    continuous glucose monitor having its wide-
    spread release in the U.S. expected to not
    occur until early 2023, I was thrown by the
    presentation of a Dexcom CGM device that
    I hadn't heard of before, called Dexcom One.

    Supposedly, that device will be cheaper and
    have less features than the Dexcom G7.

    Do you that confusing? I do. Where in the
    world did they come up with the name One?
    Weird, that. Perhaps they'd be better off nam-
    ing each new device something unique, like
    the way they name hurricanes.

    You could have the Omnipod Pam
    or the Dexcom Betty or the
    Omnipod Sherry or the
    Dexcom Maria or the ???.
    Yeah, that's the ticket. (-:

    With my Omnipod 5 hooking up to a Dexcom
    G6, brings up interesting questions:

    When the Dexcom G7 is available, will it hook
    up with the Omnipod 5 or will some other step
    or device be required?

    The cheaper but has less features than the
    Dexcom G6 or Dexcom G7, the Dexcom One,
    where will that fit in the Omnipod 5 picture?

    Another issue, the panoply of Freestyle Libre
    CGMs, when will any of them hook up with
    the Omnipod 5, and will that require some-
    thing else to make it work with Omnipod 5?

    I was diagnosed with Islit (Insulinitis)
    caused by Insulitis (autoimmune attack
    on pancreatic beta cells) at age 5, in
    March 1961, Insulitis Islit just 1 of
    the 15 specific types of Islit.

    INSULINITIS (ISLIT)

    New SUPERIOR clarifying name for near-
    total to total loss of endogenous insulin https://prohuman.net/pix2/new_superior_clarifying_name_is_INSULINITIS.jpg

    The overwhelming majority of Islit caused by
    autoimmune attacks on pancreatic beta cells
    (Insulitis Islit) but there are

    o 15 specific types of rapid onset Islit, a
    rare condition (only present in < one-half
    of 1% of Americans & in a much lower rate
    in most of the world), when present is typ-
    ically diagnosed at age under 30
    (50% at age < 18, 20% at age 19 to 29)

    o 1 slow onset specific type, Latent Autoim-
    mune Islit, frequency unknown but per a
    recent report, misdiagnosed as Cellosis
    (new clarifying name for type 2 diabetes)
    almost 40% of the time due to its slow
    onset and its occurrence typically at age
    over 30

    Old outdated anachronistic name for Islit is
    type 1 diabetes, confusing in that diabetes
    without clarifier is often used to describe
    this condition which is 1 of the 7 Disparate
    High Glucose Conditions (DHGCs).

    That makes figuring out which DHGC is actu-
    ally being referred to (and it can be any one,
    or some, or all of them when the diabetes
    or diabetic word is used without clarifier)
    confusing / difficult:
