Show Notes
Benny's back! My son – diagnosed with type 1 at age 2 and now 20 years old – joins me to talk about what's new in his diabetes management. He's made some big changes, including using U-200 insulin and just starting on a GLP-1. We'll talk about what led to those decisions and the effects they've had. We'll have an update on the Follow situation, Benny's experience training as an EMT, and how he's feeling after 18 years of type 1. Spoiler: if I could bottle how relaxed & confident this kid is, I would really have something.
