I have had Type 1 since my mid-thirties. I was hypglycemic for many years before that. My father became Type 1 in his early 50s. I have been successfully using Lantus and Humalog for 20 years also doing about 7 finger sticks a day. I am athletic and always carry Glucose tabs with me to raise any lows. I have more recently used the OmniPod Dash but am moving to the OmniPod 5 in 2003, though I switched to the Tandem T-Slim 2 because of Medicare coverage. I purchase the OmniPod 5 through Medicare Part D and use it periodically for long outdoor times or swimming. I also use my apple watch to get readings and look forward to using the Dexcom G7 especially when it is enabled to directly connect to my watch! I look forward to reducing the amount of electronics I must carry with me!
