4 • Treatment Decisions
With G7, you can treat without using your blood glucose meter (BG meter). But sometimes you
must use your BG meter instead of G7. Other times, it's best not to treat, just watch and wait.
On the first day of a new sensor session, the differences between your BG meter values and
sensor readings may be larger than usual. Generally, those numbers get closer over the first 24
hours.
Work with your healthcare provider to figure out what's best for you when making treatment
decisions. Always use their instructions to treat. You should keep using your BG meter until
you're comfortable with G7.
