Thank you so very much!

I had wondered about the pump. I took a pump vacation for about 3 years and started back up not quite 2 years ago. I have been feeling recently that the pump is actually getting in the way of maintaining my blood sugars appropriately. I also added a Dexcom CGM.

I hope you can forgive me but I have so many questions for you.

Do you use a CGM?
Do you use a pen or just syringe and vial?
Is there a specific log that you would recommend?
I was told to wait 20 minutes before bolusing if my blood sugar was over a certain amount so that the insulin and food peaked at the same time. Is that right? Or, is there a different formula based on the individual and how different foods affect their blood sugars.

Again, thank you so much. I am not much of a mathematical or science whiz so, I definitely need some remediation but, once I get it I'm good to go. I know you're very busy and I totally understand that so I would like to thank you in advance for any of the questions that you could answer for me.
