  If you’re on an insulin pump, have you ever used expired pump supplies (i.e., infusion sets, reservoirs, pods, etc.) and had any issues?
  Medicare has us right down to the wire i’ve never had that many extra supplies

  Have you ever accidentally given too much insulin and needed emergency glucagon?
  I have accidentally given myself too much insulin but I just ate a whole lot of extra food & drinks to counteract it.

  When attending sporting events and or concerts, do you bring a “diabetes bag” with you? (i.e., extra supplies, snacks, fast-acting sugars, and glucagon)
  Doesn't matter where I'm going - I always have fast-acting sugar pills ad snacks. If by "supplies" you mean a site change kit, no. Only if I'm going somewhere overnight do I carry all that.

  I always carry glucose tablets to any event I attend. However, I don't have a "bag" of supplies. I keep the tablets in my satchel, aka man purse.

  I always have something for lows but only bring a bag when the event is all day or overnight.

  I almost always bring glucose tablets to manage blood glucose.

  If the sporting event is a long duration event, I will bring supplies but not for short events.

  I put into my pump my BG reading instead of the carbs I was going to eat. Didn’t take glucagon. Just ate enough to compensate.

  After having blood drawn at a lab, how do you review the results? Please select all that apply.
  The lab's [hospital's] online portal posts 80% of results withing 24 hours or less. The other 20% are posted within 48 hours. Great speed and accuracy by those guys. Now if they could just get away from the antediluvian practice of using primitive usernames and passwords. Doh! 🐵🙈🙉

  Has your insulin ever accidentally frozen in a refrigerator? If so, please share more in the comments
  I was in Ukraine for a 3 month tour with my band in East Africa and Middle East. I accidentally put it in top shelf and it was one of those small refrigerator with open freezer on top. It cut the strength almost in half and as I was no where near to a major city I had to wait a month to get new insulin when I flew to Lebanon. My body actually adjusted to constant highs but when I got good insulin I actually went through withdrawals and would shake and. Sweat when it was in normal range. It took a week to get my body adjusted to normal blood sugars.

  Have you ever asked a hotel to provide a refrigerator so you can keep your insulin cool? Select all that apply.
  No because every hotel I stay in has a refrigerator in their rooms.

  I used to have to ask for a refrigerator but nowadays many rooms come standard with them.

  I like to keep it cold and not all hotels I’ve stayed in supply them so I always ask. However, we are taking a train across the US and Canada soon and they do not provide refrigerators nor will they allow you to keep it in theirs. So I got a small rechargeable refrigerator that I saw online, but am now deciding to let the insulin get warm. Can only have a small suitcase and a personal item and I don’t want to check my bags. Fingers crossed.

  If no regrigerator, I use an ice bucket.

  I receive a notification from the lab and from my healthcare providers portals when my results are available to view. I do a preliminary view and then at my next meeting or if there are issues my doctor will either respond via the portal or call to discuss .

  Do you use any of the following insulin pumps right now?
  Been on Tandem tslim x2 with Control IQ for four days now. This is my second t:slim, but old one had Basal IQ. Can anyone tell me a good place to get help with Control IQ online or maybe some good Youtubes to watch. I am going low a lot so need some help. Thanks

  I use Tandem t:slim x2 manually. IE: I do not use Control IQ or Basal IQ. I find my control is better doing it on my own.

  Were you extremely ill before being diagnosed with T1D? Please share more in the comments.
  Every new generation of eyes sees a new version of our diabetic galaxy. So much of the diabetic condition feels like a blatant violation of the eighth amendment anyway. 🤕👳‍♀️
