  In 2024, how much did you spend out-of-pocket on diabetes medications and supplies?
  I had to enter not sure. I can’t recall any direct expenses. However, I paid several thousand dollars for Medicare and the supplemental insurance that paid for my supplies.

  In 2024, how many appointments did you have with your T1D healthcare provider?

  My endo would be happy to see me only 2x a year vs 4x a year because of my good diabetes control BUT, Medicare mandates a visit every 90 days to the prescribing physician for any approval of claims for insulin pump supplies....penny-wise and pound-foolish, IMO.

  Oh, I also went to diabetes training camp for the second year and honestly, that's the most helpful thing I do. Several days with endocrinologists, educators, dietitians, sports physiologists, and others, most of whom also have type one.

  It depends if you include my Medicare Part B and Part D premiums. Those are $156 and $180 per month.

  If you use an insulin pump and it fails, do you know how much long-acting insulin to take?
  Before I get to using the long acting insulin, I’d go to my backup pump then the MDI.

  Yes I do and I keep long acting insulin in my supplies. But for periods of a day or two I usually just take small doses of my fast acting (Novolog) every two to four hours and do fine with that... Luckily I am 75 years old and get up to use bathroom several times through the night; also my insulin needs are low, about 25 to 30 units per day

  Do you use insulin pens or vials?
  I think we should re-work the question as two questions: One for MDI, the other for pump. I'd suspect most MDI use pens and most pump users use vials. That said, it'd would be interesting to see the splits in the two populations.

  I do! Also for if I want a larger bolus (I'll often use the pod for part and the pen for part) to avoid over saturating the pod site, or if I'm worried my site isn't absorbing well enough but I'm not 100% convinced enough to pull it off. I always have a pen in my bag in case of emergencies (though I do use vials to fill my pods) and I figure it's good to use the pen occasionally in the "use it or lose it" mentality. I'm happy keeping an active pen for many months or even a year but I'm sure it would fail eventually and need to be tossed.

  Yes for close, accuracy is a challenge and the dose may be off, just part of the process.

  I am blessed, in 30+ years of pumping I've only had one pump failure. A Minimed pump failed on a flight home.

  I don’t know how much long acting insulin I would need if my pump stopped working. I would simply contact my doctor, asking for the long acting that I’ve have used and would ask him to help me figure out how much of it I would need on a daily basis. When that has happened recently, I would just give myself periodic shots of my regular fast acting to tide me over.

  I use Omnipod 5 and always have a back up supply, since they only last 3 days. If one failed I would simply switch to a new pod.

French psychologist who invented the first practical IQ test, the Binet–Simon test.[2] In 1905, the French Ministry of Education asked psychologist Alfred Binet to devise a method that would determine which students did not learn effectively from regular classroom instruction so they could be given remedial work. Along with his collaborator Théodore Simon, Binet published revisions of his test in 1908 and 1911.
