  If you use a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), have you ever been asked to remove it for a medical procedure? Share more about your experiences and what procedures you had to remove it for in the comments!

  For how many years have you (or your loved one) been living with T1D so far?
  I was diagnosed late in life and suddenly in 2018 with T1D. I’m much more controlled now snd have managed to live with T1D. I wear a sensor and take 2 types of insulin; I am under the care of a wonderful endocrinologist which I see several times per year for follow ups. I also have have access to a diabetic dietician and have followed a personalized eating plan to control my diabetes. I can honestly say that, although my diabetes has changed my life in so many ways, I’m proud that I have come this far in almost 5 years and have learned to manage my blood glucose levels and maintain a healthy lifestyle with diet and exercises👍

  Diagnosed 15 years ago at 50. I’m inspired by those of you who have been dealing with T1D for many decades. It encourages me to hear that you all have managed it so well for so long.

  Not much to discuss, however, I am tired of T1 Diabetes! I've did Injections for fifteen (15) years and on a pump for forty (40) years for a total of fifty-five 55 years, along with using CGMS for eleven (11) years.

  I was diagnosed with LADA, type 1 last March so very new to all of this. Very grateful for this group and others where I can get input from you all.

  Living with T1D for 36 years and 25 years using a MiniMed pump and seeing the same Endo for 24 years. Blessed and luckily that I had the right tools (both mechanical and/or cognitive) to help keep my A1C within goal (never been above 6.5). As a result, I don't have eye disease, kidney issues, heart issues, or neuropathy. So, I can't complain too much about my journey.

  When I got diagnosed with T1D many years ago the doctors told my parents that I wouldn't live to age 40; thank the universe for advances in treatment! My fist blood glucose monitor was the size of a phone book! I nicknamed my first lancet device "the guillotine" and kept it in my office at the hospital where I worked to show my patients who didn't like doing a finger stick what the old days were like.

  63 of 73 years. By the way I was in rehab after a weird spinal infection(???) and the facility doctor said he had no idea what to do with me cause he’d never met someone with t1d that was in their 70’s. I assured him I could take care of me but that they’d better start training their medical staff on how to deal with type 1’s cause there will be many more coming someday. The nurses had absolutely no idea how to treat type 1 and tried to kill me with their type 2 knowledge..

  Half! I’m surprised! Goes to show that the terms “adult-onset diabetes” and “child-onset diabetes” are no longer relevant.

  I was Dx'ed in 1956. I have seen many great changes, but the annual promise of a "cure" has still not materialized. I hope it happens in my granddaughter's lifetime. I have lived a rich life despite the consequences long term T1D.
