This Guy Has Tried Nearly Every Insulin Pump

Send us Fan Mail Today, I’m sitting down with Justin Eastzer, better known online as @diabe_tech, to talk about something I think many people with diabetes can relate to: figuring out what actually works for YOU! Justin knows a lot about diabetes technology, but this conversation goes beyond insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs). In this special episode, we talk about the trial and error that comes with using these devices, working with your diabetes educator, dealing with frequent lows, and learning to recognize what your own body is telling you. We also get into exercise, emergency preparedness, what happens when diabetes technology fails, and why even the BEST diabetes tech can only help if it fits into your real life... Whether you’re thinking about trying a new insulin pump or CGM, already use diabetes technology, or are simply trying to feel a little more confident managing diabetes day to day, there’s a lot to take away from this conversation.
