Any type 1 diabetics have experience with this?

I have a family member thinking about getting one, and looking for some feedback from anyone who has used it.

Thanks

My girlfriend is Type 1. She has used the Dexcom and swears by it. She can monitor trends so much better than before and adjusted her lifestyle due to it. She works at a diabetic clinic doing research, and still maintains it's the best option out there. She was able to even lower her A1C count and says she sees the same result in the patients for her studies. Good luck to your family member.

I'm type 1. Have been for 24 years. Been wearing a pump 14 years. The Cgm is a game changers.

Def go with dexcom. Medtronic's aren't nearly as accurate.
