New pill can deliver insulin

I just stopped caring and accept that I have to die sometime. I have good A1C control, test regularly, and am very physically active. But thinking about it constantly just drives me nuts so I go about my life and if it's what kills me, so be it. And if in the (hopefully far) future my physical health is compromised to the point that I don't want to deal with it anymore, I'm at peace with that, too.

Don't feel required to answer, but I'm curious, does that mean you just run high (>150mg/dL) all the time? I find being low (<70mg/dL) or high makes me feel physically poor, and keeping in that narrow range is what I mean when I say it takes constant attention.

No. I rarely go over 150-160. I'm usually around 100 on waking and am between 70-140 for 90+% of the day. Most common lows are during/after a long run or when I overcorrect for a high.
