Hi, and welcome to the forum. I hope all is well, are you on a pump or injections?
I am on injections. Waiting to see a consultant for consideration of a pump, but lockdown has got in the way of that.
You have a lot of medication

Good to hear that you will be given access to a pump. Sorry that you have a delay in setting this up, but it will be worth the wait. In the mean time you could have a look at a couple of books, Pumping Insulin and Think Like A Pancreas. Bothe well worth reading, although some of it will only make sense once you have got going with the pump.

welcome to the forum @Youngt1
We have quite a few pump users here, who can share their experiences (some have decades of pump user under their belts!) and support you when you start - and answer any questions you have beforehand.
Many manufacturers are arranging online ‘virtual’ pump starts and training for people who aren't able to go into clinics
