SiBionics GS1 CGM - a review

[tim2000s]

It's quite hard to have missed this CGM with all the Social Media pushing. There's a review over on Diabettech (https://www.diabettech.com/cgm/sibionics-gs1-cgm-a-deep-dive/) but I've been unimpressed with their social media presence which appears to push off licence use (kids and for dosing insulin, neither of which it's approved for).

If you have any questions I'm happy to answer them.

I tried these, thanks to someone on this forum, and found them generally lower than my Contour Next, usually by around 1. Whenever I ate raspberries it dropped so low it started throwing alarms.

I wouldn’t buy them.

Bit harsh on the raspberries 😛

It was very odd, as most days I come home from work and have a few raspberries or an Apple.
As soon as I ate raspberries my BG dropped and those sensors were giving me low blood sugar warnings. It was very odd.
I did notice with Libres that when I ate sometimes blood sugar levels would drop slightly, but not down into the 3s!

I must be in a world of my own then I have not heard of it.

I think I've only seen it on Facebook. (Where it's easily lost among the adverts for a few of these smart watches which claim to read BG but don't.)
