He said confidently lol.
I won’t give up multiple daily injections (Lantus morning and night, Humalog with meals and for corrections) unless I absolutely have to. Diagnosed in 2014 at around 30 years old. Been 5.5-5.9 A1C for the past ~6 years. Maybe one scary low a year and able to keep up with my marathon running and live a semi-normal life.
No clue why I’d want to mess with that to try some hacker project.

I definitely still keep needles around for when I need to do a larger injection, anything over about 20 units in an hour and you're going to have leakage and at that point you need to replace the infusion site.
