My Glucose Monitor Can Drive Me Crazy—and I Wouldn’t Have It Any Other Way
Medical wearables open a window into the human body and are revolutionizing personal health. At least for me, they are also transforming self-care in a way that is revelatory, maddening and indispensable.
These tiny supercomputers attach to the body and generate health data for the user—a continuous stream of real-time information about one’s heart rate, blood oxygen level, blood pressure, skin temperature, respiratory rate, glucose level, body motion and, on the horizon, cancer, ketones, cholesterol and more. The black box of our well-being is suddenly revealed, numerically or graphically, on a smartwatch, smartphone or another smart device.
