Agree. But it would be nice not to have to prick myself several times each week. I'm only pre-diabetic, mostly because of a cholesterol drug they make me take, but I still have to monitor the blood sugar levels.
I get really upset that all the companies with smart watches seem to focus almost exclusively on fitness and fashion. They need to put more emphasis on health. Apple seems more into the health than most, but the Apple Watch is still primarily marketed to fitness freaks and people who want the latest, fashionable technology. I wish they would branch off the Apple Watch line with a version that was specific to health and one that would be affordable to retired people.
