Getting hooked up to Transmitter tonight

Well, my appointment for getting hooked up to the new MiniLink Transmitter/Sensor is tonight. I've never had this before and I'm not sure what it will feel like or do for me in the long run but I figured I'm going to give it a shot and see. Wish me luck.

Way cool and thanks for the picture. Where is the site for your pump?

I am hoping to get approved for the CGMS as well.

Keep us posted.
