  If you’re spending the day at a pool or beach, do you take extra precautions with your CGM or insulin pump?
  I use CGM over patches all year, but need them most during summer. Swimming and increased sweating both loosen my CGM patch edges. At the pool , I have a waterproof roll bag that my pump and phone go in. I throw my towel over the bag and my shoes. I live near beaches but am too old for all the traffic, parking, and worries about theft, to enjoy body surfing anymore.

  How long before you eat your first meal of the day do you complete your bolus?
  I use Lyumjev in my pump, which starts working much faster than Humalog. So, I either bolus just before I eat or 5 - 10 minutes after I start eating depending on what my meal consists of (IE: How much fiber, how many carbs, how much protein/fat.)

  Were you nervous and or anxious the first time you traveled on an airplane with T1D? Share your experiences in the comments!
  I was super nervous and it was horrible. They stabbed my pump and hands for bomb residue. They detained me for a long time. It was embarrassing and humiliating I learned not to wear it through the metal detector. If I put it in my purse they just thought it was a beeper and I got through with far less issues.

  I have been in Sales my whole career and until recently traveled in a twenty state territory. During that time I was diagnosed with T1 and it was just one more thing to deal with. I no longer travel quite as often or extensively but that’s because my wife and I have 2 sets of twins and 5 girls under 7. 5 small kids is much harder than Air travel.

  I mistakenly answer Yes, however, I never had any problems flying. I have best guess because I have been in Aviation since 1963, and flown well over 2000 flights, especially when I was an Airworthiness Inspector for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). I flown all around the world. Ask me if I had problems after the flight because of time changes and I would comment very strongly, YES.
