      If you’re using a GLP-1 medication, how easy was it to obtain access?
      Obtaining access with T1 with insulin resistance is incredibly difficult and unaffordable.

      Only can take Zepbound if insurance is willing to cover it because I don’t have a T2 dx required for Monujaro, etc. Zepbound is cost prohibitive and Monujaro is much more affordable, even tho they are the exact same product in different packaging. Before the Zepbound price Increase and/or insurance not covering it at all, I was very successful on it but was only able to take it for 9 months. They need to open these medications for severely insulin resistant T1s like myself.

      Have you been tested for and diagnosed with celiac disease?
      N/A was the best answer I had. I have been tested for celiac disease in multiple ways all negative.

      Have you been tested for and diagnosed with celiac disease?
      Yes. I was diagnosed in 2008 or 2009. I don't know how to explain how difficult it is living with celiac disease. It affects everything I eat. Eating at restaurants or other peoples houses, pot-luck dinners are high risk. There are many foods, or food supplements that have hidden gluten ingredients, such as soy sauce, caramel, licorice, and many more. I avoid eating food that other people cook. There is no such thing as a gluten free restaurant, unless the restaurant is completely gluten free (cross contamination of foods). Any food that may contain wheat, rye and barley cannot be eaten. Also, oats are a risk because of cross contamination with wheat, rye or barley. I bake my own bread from gluten free flour. There are lots of books and articles on the subject, but it is mostly learn as you go.

      Have any of your T1D devices ever been recalled? Share in the comments on what steps you took after learning about the recall.
      No recalls, but there should be one right now for Tandem infusion sets. The new sets are impossible to remove when trying to separate in order to take a shower. Even my health care provider tried her luck with mine and failed. The times when I would just have to rip the whole thing off for a shower and then put a new one back on afterwards are accumulating. I have started to keep a record of how much insulin is being wasted and how many times it occurs. Called Tamden twice and so far got not much more than a "call us back if it continues".

      It’s extremely easy if you’re a multi-millionaire and can afford $1000+ per month. Normal people, not so much. Medicare won’t cover it. Man insurance plans have stopped covering it. Another scam by BIG pharma to get rich ( check the prices in other countries!).

      It was not hard if one is paying out of pocket, but that's the rub. Medicare won't cover unless your doc goes through a lot of hoops and can document that you also have insulin resistance/Type 2 in addition to Type 1.

      If you’re taking a GLP-1 medication, what side effects have you experienced? Select all that apply.
      I have been taking very low dose tirzepetide for about 6 months. Initially, I had some nausea which resolved after about a week. It is an amazing drug for us T1d's. My insulin dose is about 30% less with an increase in TIR and it is just easier to manage. I do not need to lose weight, but my doc who prescribes it a lot said I would not lose much and that is so. I lost about 7 lbs initially, but regained about 4 once the side effects wore off. Food noise is down which I didn't even realize was a particular issue. Paying out of pocket is onerous, but with low dose and a vial, it is not too bad.

      What is the best advice you would have for someone who is newly diagnosed with type 1?
      Take a deep breath. It is a marathon not a sprint. Get a good healthcare team including an endocrinologist, diabetes care and education specialist, and mental health professionals. Do your own research but use well respected sources.

      The curve-balls that life throws at you may seem like the cosmic unfairness of a brain-cancer diagnosis. But T1D is not like that. It's a condition, not a disease so much. But as such the condition will require attention, awareness, tight-rope walking, and the help of others if you fall off the high wire. And, man oh man, is it ever an exciting high-wire act. --〜⁠(⁠꒪⁠꒳⁠꒪⁠)⁠〜--

      Educate yourself on this condition from many perspectives. From the professional level, the patients, and many different books of those living with it. Try and keep up to date with changing hypotheses of treatment. Get to know your body and digestion so you can choose the best insulin rates. Keep a daily diet along with activity and stresses to correlate to your blood glucose.

      This quarter of Diabetes Self-Management had an article on podcasts and blogs. Several were listed so I listened to two so far. The first was “TheHuddle,” while interesting geared towards Diabetes Care and Education Specialists,” after a few episodes went on to “Juicebox.” This seems to be geared to younger TYPE 1, but the information is good. So far one of the guests was a young lady experiencing “body transmorphia,” in my words a self destructive feeling towards her body, along with TYPE 1. But the host is easy to listen to, thus far varied guests, and I’ve gotten a few ideas that may help my own care. There’s more podcasts listed I’m going to go through.

      I listen to Juicebox and TCOYD. Both have lots of good information and are well done. With Juicebox, I find the interviews interesting, learning about different folks and how they live with T1D. The host, Scott Benner, also does short podcasts with Jenny Smith who has T1D and is an CDE, and more. I really have learned a LOT of ways to cope and manage my T1D from this podcast. Also, it is not just for younger folks like mentioned in previous post, I am 64. Check out the website, there is so much info there!

      I listened to Juicebox extensively for a few months. Now only once in a while when I see a particular topic of interest. I think they are very helpful in getting information out initially to the newly diagnosed, but after a T1D person gets their numbers down and unless looking for significant improvement, they don’t have as much impact as online or in-person groups like TUDiabetes, FUD Diabetes Forum, LoopandLearn, etc.

        I should have also mentioned TCOYD! Dr’s Edelman and Pettus have a good balance of serious discussion, currency, and humor that is good at communicating, and though obviously impacted by sponsors have a reputation for a fairly balanced presentation.

        I wear a blue tooth, have PODBEAM downloaded on my phone. While walking my herd, driving to work, or yesterday painting have them on. Admittedly I may miss something while concentrating on something else (like had to look up the definition of “algorithm” because I just missed it) but even half listening it’s good.

        At 62 not as astute with technology as my 20 year old nephews but at least beats bordom.

      Yes! Great place to get support, newest information, and connections! Beta Cell with Craig Stubbing, new TCOYD, Real-life Diabetes. Some are more basic than others and I’m not a fan of the podcasts lead by parents who have children with T1. They seem more annoying, controlling and intrusive but I listen when they have important speakers.

        Thanks for the tip on Samantha Farley’s YouTube channel! Just checked it out. Does she actually say she’s Chris Farley’s daughter? My husband went to college with him and didn’t think he had any kids? He said he had a bunch of brothers, though, so perhaps she is his niece?
