  If you have experienced severe hypoglycemia that resulted in a loss of consciousness, when was your most recent experience losing consciousness during a low?
  Back when I was 25 which was 51 years ago I was getting ready for a new roommate on NPH insulin and I did not eat. I remember falling getting up and falling again broke my foot. I don’t know how I made through that one there was no one around, that was a very scary time that NPH insulin was a killer and the fact we didn’t know what was going on

  Do you notice that different brands of the same type of insulin impact you differently?
  I was on Fiasp with the medtronic pump since switching to tandem. I am now back on NovoLog the Fiasp clogs the line in tandem. The difference I noticed is the Fiasp is a bit faster acting

  If you use an insulin pump, how happy are you with your current pump, on a scale of 1 to 5? Select the statement that is most accurate for you.
  I have tandem T slim IQX2 I would change the target range while using the automatic system. I like a range of about 95 to 110 right now it’s set at 1:10. I do love the fact I haven’t had the lows I used to have, but I am running a bit higher and I’m sure my A1c won’t be quite as good as he usually 5.6 I think it will be more like six now.

  Have you ever used insulin that was unrefrigerated for more than 28 days?
  Back in the day when we didn’t know anything like 1967 I went to Europe for three months with a girlfriend, and I had all my medicine with me never knew where I was kind of archaic. It’s amazing I made it.

  When eating a serving of animal protein (chicken, fish, steak, pork, etc.), do you calculate additional insulin for your meal bolus? Share what works for you in the comments!
  I have never found a need to do this and the few times I tried it it backfired on me. I never get a meal right anyway and if I start adding protein, I’ll get in big trouble. 62 yrs T1D
