IAmA type 1 diabetic who hasn't taken insulin in 6 months and is still alive AMA

Hard to verify this, but here are my Novolog and Lantus pens .

Here's my pump and meter specifically for the pump.

Here are my glucose meters .

Here is my stockpile of months' worth of lancets and test strips that have gone unused.

Ask away...

Edit - more proof.

Letter from insurance regarding hospital stay.

Test results from 2 months after diagnosis and after starting my insulin regimen.

Elevated blood sugars from when I was in the hospital: 1 2

Note: Those are the earliest readings I have.
