First up, we’re talking about the increasing trend of doctors prescribing Ozempic and similar drugs for people with type 1. Then, we recount a hilarious and slightly terrifying tale of trying to silence a malfunctioning Omnipod by running it over with a Kia Stinger. Spoiler alert: it took more than just a hammer to finally put it to rest. Who knew insulin pumps could be so dramatic?
We also share some real talk about managing sick days with Type 1. From dealing with stubborn high blood sugars to the importance of having a solid plan, we’ve got some great tips and stories to help you navigate those tricky times.
So grab your favourite beverage, get comfy, and join us for another episode full of laughs, learning, and a few facepalm moments.
