Hopefully it will be approved that way. Heck, the CGMS was marketed by Minimed's trainers as not needing anymore fingersticks but 2 a day to calibrate, and it was the FDA that manditated they add on thier information that it's not a replacement and that before any corrections (insulin or food) are given a fingerstick should be done. So hopefully the Navigator will get approved without that little notation which is what turns insurance companies away from it.

Diabetes is an Art, NOT a Science. You must master the control by skills and not by knowledge alone.
