  During which month were you (or your loved one) diagnosed with T1D?
  Diagnosed in September, right after Labor Day, in 1946. I'm 88 and still active, driving, and in general living a 'normal' life for someone my age.

  If you use an insulin pump that allows you to give extended boluses, on average how often do you give an extended bolus?
  Nearly every bolus is Extended. I have a lot of scar tissue and very little fatty tissue, so infusion sites give me problems. Medtronic had a 'slow delivery' option that helped, but Tandem shoots the insulin into the site in 'spurts'. I've found the Extended bolus over 15 mins (the minimum time) emulates the 'slow delivery' option and has increased my TIR and site comfort.

  Have never tried it, enough to deal with already

  Depending what I eat is what determines if I do extended bolus or not

  @K Ro Yes! My Endo is at a research hospital. They understand that T1s can benefit greatly from off-label meds...being that the only reason they're not approved for T1s is because "they can lower BG". Duh, that's the point. My Endo does this only for T1s who really get the math, understand the potential dangers. We stepped into it very slowly and carefully. The GLP1 has helped calm my liver (excess glucagon), replaces the effects of amylin (she's full!), and has reduced my total insulin needs by 50%. I do so much better. Without it, my carb ratio is 1:6 and ISF 1:80 (difficult to manage!). With GLP1, I'm 1:15 and 1:90, respectively, and basal is down by 40%. I use less than a typical T2 dose. It's been wonderful.

  You have an MD who prescribed a GLP1 ??? I’m jealous- would love to try that

  Only for pizza (which only happens 1-2 times a month) and other fried food (which is also rare). I use increased temp basal after a meal with more success. I wish extended boluses could be extended for more than 2 hours as my daughter peaks 4-5 hours later.
