As a person with extensive family history beside the heart is diabetes and even though I dont have it, at least not yet it would be very cool to be able to watch blood glucose (no pun intended) I know all about the finger pricks. I would love to see both BP and glucose. I do regularly check my BP and other than annual exam I dont with glucose but I would LOVE to be able to watch the levels and compare them to what I am eating. I REALLY try hard to eat right, but other times I know I can do better.The measuring of blood pressure is a bit convoluted as I understand it. It measures changes in BP but you need to have a baseline measurement first with the traditional devices before proceeding. Blood pressure is a constant variable.
The whole health technology movement is fascinating. Future Apple AirPods will be able to monitor certain health parameters. I’m sure this technology will come to other manufacturers as well. I am waiting for the blood glucose measuring. When that happens it will certainly change the routines of diabetics like me who test daily and even those with CGM devices. No more needles!
Being I love electronics, it motivates me and it's why for instance I even like Orange Theory Gym because it tracks your heart rate and I get to see it live.
Uncontrolled Diabetes can be so insidious its good to see people who take is serious.
