egos and more egos

Here we go....another ego thread.... A pump is a TOOL. Simple as that. This is just like the old Chevy vs Ford debate definately. Whichever one someone drives they will always praise it and look down their nose and bash the other. Whatever floats your boat is what you should use. I am not worried at all about the meter issue, I use a Ultra Smart, and ONLY use the BD one to sync my data with Carelink. One thing the Cozmo praisers/MM bashers NEVER mention.... MM has Cozmo beat on data analysis, reports, and the like. Ahem... which pump has more prescriptions written year after year? MM does. Which pump do more Endo's recommend? MM. I hate these *ahem.. urinating* matches......
The ones who say the CGMS of MM's is inaccurate... ain't used one. I DO, and it is SPOT ON accurate 97.5% of the time for me, and when it is off, it's not by more than 10%. 9 times out of 10 when I test, it is within 5 points of my actual fingerstick BG reading.
Even though I don't use a Cozmo, I do NOT bash them or talk bad about them to anyone. It is an *INDIVIDUALISTIC* choice, just like picking what color to paint your house, car, etc.
