Tony has an appointment in March to try out the CGMS. I'll be reading up around here, but does anyone have any input for a noob?
Any questions you wished you would have asked if only you'd known?

I would say that (assuming you are trying the minimed) that if you don't get the results you want, try the dexcom. We were lucky, but I know others have had problems with one, but not the other.
I would also join diabetescgms at yahoogroups. Just watch, listen, and read as much as you can. They give great tips (there is whole section if you check the files area of the group).
We went into our trial with more knowledge than our trainer at the time! Just absorb as much info as you can. Emmasmom had some posts that really prepared me for sensor insertion.
