Hello scubaboard.

DAN released a good article on scuba diving with diabetes:

The article went on to say that tests were done using CGM (here is a pic)

If you look closely at the unit on the right, this is a dexcom receiver.

A few years ago I tested this same setup using a dexom and a small pelican case, and was not successful, but the recent tests done might have been using a different dexcom sensor.
The newer G5 works with Bluetooth.

If anyone knows what Dexcom transmitter was able to work underwater or if any mods were done to aid in getting this working Id be interested in hearing about it.

I've contacted DAN, and Dexcom asking them, but the last time I contacted the manufactor, they weren't very helpful.
