      Fortunately that hasn't been an issue for quite some time. If I need help beyond what I've learned from 67 years of previous experience, I'd contact my endo or CDE.

      The resources I use in managing my glucose levels once sick is my own personal experience after living with t1d for 46 years

      Just did what makes sense to me- eating less carbs, watching blood glucose more often and taking corrections as needed. Also some level of activity if possible.

      Been type 1 since the early 80's learned self management as therapies changed. Unless hospitalized(which I never am anymore) I decide how much insulin to put in my body based on my on going experience with the 1000's of reasons I may need more or less of it. I do love my pump, insulin and CGM so I guess I have to tell the doctor what I do once a year. .. I just keep throwing info and facts he isn't up on till he gets a glazed over look on his face and writes my scripts. I find the most inconvenient part of diabetes is all the people that want to help but don't know much about everyday life with the disease. And NO I do not want to join a discussion group!

      Many times I have needed to adjust insulin intake amount in order to cope with illness, but only rarely needed outside help. In the early 1970’s I made some mistakes managing influenza. My BG went very high (no meter available for testing at home), and I ended up in the hospital then.

      Except for those brand new at this, we all know the drill. We know that we need to be flexible, make adjustments, and pay attention.

      only time that I have been sick was when I got COVID during Jan '22. my sugars were going crazy high and I couldn't understand why but when I tested positive for COVID, in retrospect it made sense.

      My values aren’t shared live. They get uploaded when I go in for my appointments. I don’t think I could hide when my numbers go out of range even if I wanted to.

      if you want help getting to your goal, why hide them
      if doctors dont see reality of living with diabetes as a challenge, they neds their wisdom and compassion, they won’t practice in endocrinology

      The purpose of sharing is to allow someone to help if I get in trouble and don’t realize it. If the “helper” is just being “judge” they wouldn’t be a helper for long!

      My endocrinologist can access my numbers through Clarity. I shared with my husband, but he wanted whatever caused the alarms to be fixed immediately, so for both our sanities, I stopped sharing with him.

      No I do not “hide” my numbers from my Endocrinologist. It makes no sense to be dishonest. If I want help from my doctors, they need to know what is going on. Sending false information only hurts me.

      The only people who have any interest in my numbers are health care providers. I’m paying for their advise on managing those numbers and share that data only with them.

      I always let the nurse practitioner I see every 3 months for my type 1 diabetes to see my numbers and how much insulin I take but by no means does she provide any ongoing support for me and my daily challenges with my diabetes care

      My endocrinologist will download and study them at our visit. I drive 160 miles for his highly educated help. Why would I hide the info he needs to help me?

      My endo has access through the Tandem pump portal and also provided a Glooko account that links with my G6. The advantage of the Glooko logger is that I can add meals, exercise and notes which add the needed context to help understand the CGM numbers. Context is king.

      I’m sure they don’t have someone monitoring the shared data continuously. You share data for assistance. Now, if I were to be shamed for my numbers, I’d cut them off by leaving the practice.

      I upload (via T-Connect, it shows Dexcom and pump data) every month. I do it for me. Since T-Connect is a “pull” system – meaning the Endo goes to the system and pulls the data down (as opposed to a “push” system where it shows up automatically every month when I upload). I don’t share my data with anyone other than the Endo practice.

      I don’t have a support team. My husband can see my numbers but he doesn’t really look at them. I’m ok with that. My doctor will download the numbers when I see him every 3 to 4 months. My adult children does not inquire, and although sometimes I share my stories, they have no clue what the concerns are.

      I don’t share and I manage quite well without sharing my CGM data – it’s nobody’s business except mine. I only upload prior to a visit with endo provider to look at TIR and trends and discuss any changes that need to be made.
