There is no direct integration between Medtronic and Enhance-d (yet), but you can use a workaround involving third-party tools. This method allows you to send glucose data from Medtronic CareLink to Enhance-d through Nightscout.
These solutions are DIY and Open Source, and as such, any acquisition of information from these sources should be used for informational purposes only and should not used for any medical decisions or treatments.β
