开启手机的应用,无需高明郎中

开启手机的应用,无需高明郎中      Reporter: Millie Norton was just six years old when she was diagnosed with Type-1 1)Diabetes.   And, whilst diabetics have been self-monitoring for years, the latest gadgets offer more high-tech control. Two years ago she switched from 2)insulin injections to a blood 3)glucose reader that connects to a continuous glucose pump via Bluetooth.
