      How often do you feel informed about new therapies being studied for T1D?
      I feel somewhat informed. I get most of my information about new therapies on this website (T1D Exchange). My doctor usually tells me some things long after I've already read about it on this website. Actually, I think I tell my doctor more than she tells me.

      Only what is reported at conferences and covered by e-zines like DiaTribe.

      It's sometimes difficult shift through. I get a lot of spam redirections. I'm also only really interested in autoimmune type diabetes. Right now GLP-1 interest is all the rage. I'm not a candidate for those type of drugs. Funny how these drugs which became so popular with the rich people mostly non diabetic have taken over by all the drug companies.

      Would you be willing to participate in long-term research (1 year or longer)?
      Hard to truly say without details. I said likely not, but really this is such an open ended question that has too many possibilities to answer.

      How often do you change infusion or sensor sites earlier than recommended?
      I use omnipod and dexcom G7. At 70 years old, I am fortunate to get the full 80 hours with each Omnipod which translates into three pump changes every 10 days. This works very well with the 10 day G7. I am also able to build up extra pods. I also use an open source AID algorithm so do not have to worry about having both CGM and pump on the same side of the body.

      If compensation were offered for research participation, what format would you prefer?
      It depends on the travel distance. The longer the distance the more important the reimbursement it is the total deal. If it's across the street keep the money. If it's across the country we need to talk.

      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.

      Assuming I would live long enough to complete it — I’m going to be 80, but I’m a healthy, active T1D.

      Yes. At my age (according to the social security life expectancy table) I have 8.6 years left. Whew! Thank heavens for that point-six. 🍄🦋

      I am on the Dash and plan to stay

      Having already switched from the Eros to the 5, six months ago, I selected “not using the Eros.” For those that are using the Eros, skip the Dash. After the few weeks of adapting to the new PDM, I have had really good results. The Omnipod is the best system for those of us who HATE having the long tubes hanging out and catching on everything. Be stealth!

      I am on the Dash as well. I wanted Dexcom G7 more than Omnipod 5, so I switched to G7. I expect it won’t be long before G7 works with 5.

      Recently switched to the dash with diy loop, so nice to just have to carry an iPhone and bolus from my watch

      I am going to Tandem. Just need to use my supplies up before I start on the new system. I am not sure how I will adapt to being tubed again but I am hoping it helps with my lipoatrophy among other things.

      I’m a DIY Loop guy so this was an easy switch for me. My insurance covers it and I am all set as the DASH actually integrates more easily with Loop (it removed the need to carry an extra device).
