<p><span>However, CGMs aren't perfect, and fingerstick readings still have an important role, especially when symptoms don't match sensor readings.</span></p>

<p><strong><span>Do you use a CGM, a traditional glucose meter, or both?</span></strong></p>
<p><span>If you use a CGM, which brand do you prefer, and what has your experience been like?</span></p>
