Flash Glucose Monitoring (FGM) is a newly introduced Glucose Monitoring system. FGM provides both graphical representation of qualitative and quantitative changes in glucose levels occurring over 14-day period collapsed into single modal day graph as well as day by day graphs. In this report, we present our experience with FGM in different clinical situations. In our experience FGM is an extremely useful clinical tool for detection of glucose variability, hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. It can also be used as an effective educational tool when the data from FGM is shared with the patient. This helps in motivating the patient in achieving better glycemic control.
