  Using Control-IQ, that gives me micro doses during the day, in addition to any that are included with my meal bolus makes that a difficult question to correctly answer. My attention is focused on my TIR and right now that's 98%.

  I just let Control-IQ sort it out and don't pay attention!

  I attempt to keep my A1C below 6.5 and have been successful. The tandem x2 is limited in it’s response - reason for corrections

  Do you have any special plans during National Diabetes Awareness Month this November?
  I always celebrate World Diabetes Day November 14. It's my birthday. This year, I got a 5.6 A1C for my birthday, well actually my endo appointment was the day before, but that counts. Lowest I've ever had since dx in 1983. I finally got to normal! Only took 41 years.

  There is a correction at each meal that Control IQ calculates, but I must approve, the same as if I were doing MDI. . That's 0-3. I check mid-morning, mid-afternoon and 2 hours after dinner. I usually only need to make corrections after dinner which can vary from none to 3. So that is 0-6 MANUAL corrections per day. Control IQ will intervene with an automatic bolus if it has been more than an hour since the last bolus and BG is projected to rise above 180 mg/dL That happens about once per day, usually less than 1 unit unless I forget to bolus for a meal. So my total corrections per day varies from 0-7. The average is 3.5. The median is 5.

  Not really plans, but I got an awesome "Dead Pancreas Society" t-shirt complete with skeleton with sugar skull! I am wearing it to work today to show off! Got it from Amazon. Only $18 with prime. One coworker already ordered one for her (diabetic) dad for Christmas
