      Starting in 1996, my midriff has received more pounding than the Gaza strip. Both look similar. Consequently, I change frequently, every 2.5 days or so. Whatever the landscape will tolerate. 📄🖍️o(≧o≦)o🧸

      I change infusion sites every other day rather than every 4th day. I’ve been doing this for years after I started to see my insulin requirements increase dramatically on the 3rd day. It’s not really “earlier than recommended” since my endo agrees with this schedule and writes my prescriptions to accommodate it.

      I usually extend them rather than cut their longevity short. I am insulin resistant and if I don't refill pump at day 2 I can't get to day 3-4. So, I usually use it a day longer than instructed due to the refill. And before moving to G7 I would restart my CGM and get an average of 14 days with some rare, 21 day uses in the mix. Sadly, Dexcom has figured out how to make more money off us by forcing a restart every 10 days with a transmitter built in.

      I change my infusion site early if it's ripped off (obviously) or if I'm running high for no reason I can detect. Changing the site can sometimes help. I only change my CGM early if 1) it's going haywire with my numbers (reading high or low without cause) or 2) sometimes it's just convienant due to scheduling. But that's usually one day early.

      Sites on my legs seem to get irritated with resultant higher glucoses by day 2, so I often change out these sites every 2 rather than 3 days.

      I answered "maybe" because I am house bound and can do survey's online, but not in person. Also, I am 86 and not eligible for most research.

      If research results were shared directly with participants in plain language summaries, how valuable would that be to you?
      I don't have problems reading published results. I'm more concerned with information that doesn't get published or is just left out.

      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 don’t listen to, or watch any podcasts. I’m not technologically savvy. T1D Exchange is my the only diabetes related site in which I partake. I keep myself busy enough where I don’t want to spend any more time on the computer.

        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?

      I am a reader, not a listener.

      But as TomH mentioned TCOYD! Dr’s Edelman and Pettus are entertaining and educational in the best traditions of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, Chris Farley and David Spade, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, et al. (^ω^)
