I’m also a type 1 and I force myself to use pens every few months so I don’t get jumped like this. We need implantable insulin pumps again so bad. Also fuck tandem, I’ve moved to Omnipod (which has its own issues, but better than tandem).

Pro tip: get a Rx for your pens sent to a national pharmacy that your insurance supports, but don't fill it. That way, if you have this issue while traveling, you can just walk into a pharmacy and walk out in half an hour with what you need
