Anyone else on here with Type 1 Diabetes? ?

I want to expand my network & am enjoying talking on here with other folks who have to deal with this autoimmune disorder.

Plus it's nice to have contacts in case of emergency or needing advice, especially with healthcare in the terrifying state it's currently in.

@Sparrow Hi. Sorta t1d living with a pump, here. Metabolically, I am not diabetic due to the autoimmune mechanism, I had pancreatitis that destroyed most of my islets. Effectively, T1 for ... ooh, 20 yrs this summer/fall.
