  If insulin became available in a once-weekly formulation, how interested would you be?
  Novo Nordisk is in clinical trials with a once weekly basal insulin. I am on MDI and was offered a place in the trial and declined for several reasons. The market for this is Type 2s currently on a once daily long-acting insulin like Lantus. Novo’s hope is that fewer shots will attract more patients.

  If it handled basal and bolus correctly, where my time in range was 80-90% and I only had to do one shot a week that would be amazing

  This is part of living with a pancreas that is not capable of telling the liver the body needs glucose. If you are keeping BG in tight range smaller adjustments are both proactive and reactive done to manage BG. To look at it as a bad thing is a bit irrational and unrealistic.

  I much prefer glucose tablets so I know exactly what I'm getting and how soon.

  Multiple times daily. My life is so active with yard work, running, gym, band, etc. etc.. I am constantly in need of glucose. My go to's are juice (any fruit flavor) and Trader Joe's Mostly Mesquite Honey. When I have time, I also eat fruit, i.e. oranges, apples, grapes, dates, figs, raisins, etc.

  And an even longer way from 6 urine drops boiled with copper sulfate in a test tube. ଓ

  How confident are you in the accuracy of the T1D information you see online?
  My confidence depends on the source; if and how well I know the person or organization.

  I will always do my own research after seeing something interesting or new. So, I don't trust anything right off, but I will listen and learn.

  The good, the bad, and the ugly appear on line. Even the source needs to be questioned and questioned continually about statistical significance, sample size, collaborating cross-referenced studies, and current vs. distant relevancy. ☀️🛰️⚡

  Yes it does and there are several very good sources which I trust. Maybe a question about those would be good.
