They’ve just moved into clinical trials and asking CEO John Sjolund to explain it all. This podcast is not intended as medical advice.

Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

Living with type 1 diabetes as a professional athlete is an exercise in intense management and mental stamina. Gary Forbes did it before today’s technology – no CGMs or AID pumps, not even fast acting insulin at the start of his career! – and without a diabetes community. He’s making up for lost time with that last bit.. connecting in a way that he says has changed how he looks at T1D. Of course, we’re talking about basketball – as one of only three NBA players with type 1, Gary has a very unique perspective and a great message he’s getting out in a new comic series.

I talk to a LOT of people who have a child diagnosed with diabetes, so they decide to write a book. I don’t talk to a lot of children’s book authors who decide to write about diabetes.

Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

Eversense is now a 365 day continuous glucose monitor. Their ads say One Year – One CGM. Eversense is the only CGM with a sensor that sits fully under the skin – the transmitter still sits on top but you can take that on and off. Earlier this year the FDA designated the device an iCGM which means it can now work with insulin pumps. Lots of milestones here and lots of questions for Brian Hanson, President of CGM at Ascensia Diabetes Care, the company behind eversense. This podcast is not intended as medical advice.
