I have adult onset Type 1 diabetes.
I was diagnosed with diabetes in 1996.
I have used an insulin pump to manage my diabetes for over fifteen years.
Currently I use an ACCU-Chek Spirit Combo pump with Humalog insulin, an ACCU-Chek Aviva Combo meter, and a Dexcom G4 Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM).
The ACCU-Chek Spirit pump has been discontinued.
I have used the ACCU-Chek pump and meter for the past five years.
I have used the Dexcom 4 CGM for the past four years.
I am considering the Medtronic MiniMed 670G system with SmartGuard - Guardian Sensor 3 CGM

or the Tandem t:slim X2 with the Dexcom G5 CGM
