Hi @ErinM and welcome to the forum. As a type 2 I'm woefully ignorant of type 1 issues, apart from the fact it seems terribly complicated! But there are loads of people here who will be able to help...it is a veritable font of knowledge from lots of lovely people. Any questions just shout out and someone will help 🙂

Welcome @ErinM 🙂 What issues are you struggling with? Are you on a pump, or on MDI?
