Ryan, most numbers in the posts below are accurate. The piece to add in is this. The minimed sensors ($350 for 10) are approved from a 3-day wear. I am on my 13th day with this one, with highly accurate numbers, +/- 5mg/dl at most given times.

I don't know the costs for the Dexcom, or now the Navigator.

The times it has woken me up and prevented serious lows would be worth the cash cost, if I paid out of pocket.

It will be an expensive startup/frustration period more than likely. It took me a good month to work it all out well.

The yahoo group, cgmsusers, has lots of discussions. Many around cost.
