T1D for 17 years. I’ve been using OmniPod for about 11 years—OmniPod 5 since January 2023. I’ve noticed over the past week or so that the OmniPod receiver will not charge past 50% and will not hold a charge anymore. The charging port has been a bit messed up for about a year, but even when it says it’s charging there isn’t much happening. I’m wondering if this is like a cell phone and the battery is only good for so long? Luckily I have another receiver to switch to, but it’s been annoying!

tldr my half of family is being shitty and have told me they will actively physically avoid me/ask me to leave if I don’t cover up my (16 month post op) chest 🫩😓

not swimming is not really an option, it’s going to be 95° and this is the only chance this summer that I have to see the other half of my family

I bought an electric scooter off of Facebook marketplace a few weeks ago & it keeps shutting off randomly mid-ride 😭

I seem to have misplaced mine and am in need of a new one! Looking for something small & discreet & not heinously expensive

Living near Boston—I’ve coordinated a time with my landlord for them to come soon. Overall the insulation and window seals are okay in my apartment, but the temperature control in my bedroom is awful (53° when the rest of my house was 65° on one of the single-digit January days, 80°+ in the summer even with the AC blasting)

Will they replace the insulation or windows if necessary? (if my landlord agrees to pay…)

Also, how long does the assessment take on average? My house is ~60 years old, so not new but not super old either. TIA!

I’m between 2 scooters on Facebook marketplace.

One is $40, technically a kids’ scooter, 7.5mph max, 155lb weight limit, fully functional & comes with charger, rarely used

One is $50, adult size scooter, 15mph max, battery is “iffy”, heavily used (I’d be the 3rd owner)

I can also just buy a new one if anyone has inexpensive recommendations but I’m trying to avoid buying on Amazon! TIA!

Shortly after the storm started I smelled smoke. It went away after an hour or so but I wasn’t able to find a source

I meant to post earlier but got distracted in making sure that the smell wasn’t coming from my house 😅

I’m hoping to head to New Hampshire & the White Mountains for a couple days in August with family. Reddit, what should I do while I’m there? We’re mid level outdoorsy people who would prefer a lodge/similar accommodations over full camping. TIA :)

EDIT: I have been to New Hampshire many times before, looking for suggestions that are unique

She made me feel bad about my weight, my diabetes management skills, and my diet.

I’ve been having a really hard time managing food intake lately. Any tips on how to add protein & fiber (that isn’t eggs, yogurt, meat, or cottage cheese)? Thanks in advance :/

Hi all! I am a Type 1 diabetic going to a Red Sox game (my first!) next month at Fenway. I have a clear plastic bag that is under the 12x12x6 parameters but it *is* a backpack—which is stated as not allowed. I’ll need to bring some medical supplies with me, so I’m hoping it’ll be okay?

I’m planning on calling the accessibility services number tomorrow to ask, but I thought I would also post here in case people have any advice. Thanks in advance!
