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.

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.

Schools are still pushing back on CGM. How you can help the legal fight for change

Diabetes Connections | Type 1 Diabetes

Earlier this year, it looked like a big win for parents of kids with diabetes when the DOJ ruled that CGM can be considered standard of care. Unfortunately, the lawyers fighting for families in this case tell me it’s not that simple, the Dept of Justice ruling may have to be litigated on the local levels across the country. They’re back to talk to me about what happened, what you need to know, and how you can make your issue known, if your child’s school is giving you a hard time about continuous glucose monitoring. Our guests this week are Bonnie Roswig, an attorney with a small...

We’ve been hearing a lot more about screening for type 1 diabetes – I saw my first mainstream commercial for it last week – but what does that mean?

There’s a lot to unpack here.. my guest is the director of community screening and clinical trials education with BT1D.

Traveling with diabetes gives you enough to think about – especially traveling internationally: preparing, packing, going through airport security. But if you travel out of your country – not just the US – with your Dexcom G7, you also have to be aware of something called geofencing. If something goes wrong with your phone or your app.. getting it back is going to be an issue. We’ll talk about how this works, why it’s in place, and what you can do about it.
