      On a scale of 1-5, how satisfied are you with your current insulin delivery method (pump, pens, syringes, inhaler, etc.)? 5 = the most satisfied, 1 = the least satisfied
      I have the Omnipod 5 and Dexcom. I've been on an insulin pump since the early 1990s. I gave it a 4 since Omnipod has some flaws, in my opinion, but far better than the days of injections in the 1950s when I was first diagnosed.

      I'm middle of the road on this question. Technology keeps getting better (and more expensive), but it's still geared toward people who want to live like they don't have diabetes. My current pump is aimed to bring my sugar down to a level higher than what I normally keep mine.

      In your own words, how would you describe the feeling of a severe low?
      Before Dexcom it was in the middle of the night and my husband woke me up because he said I felt very clammy to him. I was sweating profusely. I could barely think to get out the words to him to go get my bottle of juice from the fridge. I asked him to get my meter so I could check my bs. And it was no surprise that the number 21 came up.

      Had a full hysterectomy in 2006, so I don’t have ovaries anymore.

      Oops! (insert laughing emoji here) I answered “No, I have not had symptoms of PCOS”. This is absolutely true because I am male. Ha-ha. I should have answered “This health issue does not apply to me”, which is also true.

      I was diagnosed with PCOS at age 26, about 5 years before I was diagnosed with T1D.

      I’m in between answers on this one. In my 20s I regularly experienced spotting at 2 weeks into my otherwise very regular monthly cycles. OBGYN thought I could have PCOS from over treating my diabetes with insulin. I believe his rationale was that higher than normal insulin levels in blood from injection could be affecting my other hormones. My endocrinologist disagreed with the diagnosis based on my low weight, insulin sensitivity and absence of other symptoms. I took oral birth control pills for a while which resolved.

      The question, as written is very misleading! No, I have not been diagnosed with PCOS. I am not familiar with the symptoms of this, so I really do not know if I have any. Please reword, or explain what the symptoms are before asking in this manner.

      The answer was ‘no’, but somehow I accidentally pushed on the ‘yes’! Oops!

      A littler confusing, the main question is ā€œHave you been diagnosedā€ and the No answer is about having symptoms of PCOS.

      I was diagnosed in 1974 (age 16) with PCOS. I was diagnosed with T1D in 2005 (age 47).
