      If insulin became available in a once-weekly formulation, how interested would you be?
      If it handled basal and bolus correctly, where my time in range was 80-90% and I only had to do one shot a week that would be amazing

      Would this be a basal insulin? How would meal-time insulin be administered? And how would fluctuating insulin needs (day vs night, sedentary vs active) be managed with a single dose? I have many questions that outweigh the possible convenience of a single injection (if that’s what this question is about).

      I responded "Unsure" because I'd need more information about this before I would be willing to try anything...

      I like having control over the amount of insulin I administer according to my diet and physical activity.

      I said moderately because being on Medicare, I’d need much more information such as how many weeks would I be able to have on hand without additional prescriptions? Would I still need some kind of preauthorization once per year that’s a hassle getting? How long would it stay good - the same amount of time? Would the pump take a week’s worth or how does that work with pump supplies?

      I'm MDI and if we're talking basal it isn't a big deal to me. Now if we're talking fast acting, that's a much different story!

      On average, how long does it take you to recover from a low glucose episode?
      I find I can normalize my BG in 15-30 minutes. But after ~50 years with T1D and maybe due to getting older I am fairly exhausted for hours after a hypo.

      To feel like it hadn’t happened I need a nap.

      It varies from 5 minutes to 20 minutes. The exception to this is the very occasional low that's resistant to resolving and - as Anthony said in his comment - I continue adding more glucose until I begin to feel the symptoms ebb. Once the low is gone the extra glucose will slowly but surely result in a higher-than-desired blood sugar.

      I answered 15-30 minutes, but there are times, especially at night, especially when very low, that it can take 1-2 hours. That's a real pain. I just keep throwing glucose at the problem which will creat high readings later, but I have to get the glucose reading to rise and it won't. Also, my best quality decisions are not made when awoken in the middle of the night.

      How often do you take a “vacation” from wearable diabetes technology (insulin pump, CGM)?
      Never! I think about my blood sugar so much less with all these devices attached. And I barely notice them once they are on. It’s such a blessing that when I have to take them off that’s more of a problem/inconvenience than a vacation.

      Never. I have severe hypoglycemic unawareness. No symptoms even at glucose levels of 40.

      Nope. Love my technology! Having it frees up so much mental bandwidth that I would otherwise have to spend on finger sticks, calculating insulin doses, figuring how much insulin on board, etc. Also, I love not carrying a purse with all that "stuff" everywhere I go - I put my license & credit card in my phone case and I'm hands-free. Absolute magic!

      It feels like a step pack to me. Keeping two types of insulin on hand. And adjusting a week long basil dose will take months to dial in. It won't be as easy as adjusting basil levels with a pump.

      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).
