New #healthinsurance won’t cover 1 of my meds. A med I’ve taken for 3 years that works for me.
Dr will appeal, but we will have to look for other alternatives. Im so pissed!

Diabetes advocacy when living with diabetes hits very differently to doing it for work. Even those of us ‘working in diabetes’ have a vastly different experience as advocates because the skin in the game is our own.

The past 3 weeks reminded me that new people can walk into your life and bring change and positive vibes because they see you for you - without being clouded by others perspectives, including your own… if you’re open to conversations with new people.
And now I’m reminding you.

‘Burnout is real. Diabetes burnout is real. Burnout in all dimensions is real. When it rains it pours and sometimes multiple types of burnout can hit at the same time.’
So good to see you back in the diabetes blogosphere, Kelly. ⁦Kelly / Diabetes⁩ diabetesaliciousness.blogspot.com/2024/04/its-be…

If you have diabetes

..and you have new GI symptoms…

“Anxiety leads to shame. Shame leads to avoidance.” Our wealth of options for diabetes is wonderful but can ⬆️ anxiety. Frame strategies as a way to “ease burden” for the person. “A1c is a psychosocial marker, not just a biological marker” Barry Simon @DUcongress #DUCongress24

“Including people with lived experience in diabetes conferences is no longer just a ‘nice to have’,” writes #dedoc ° voice Emma Doble.
