He's Been Cured After 36 Years with T1D

Send us Fan Mail Can you imagine waking up one day and no longer needing insulin? No longer worrying about how many carbs are in a meal? No longer fretting over whether you'll go low during exercise? No longer overthinking every little thing because of type 1 diabetes (T1D)? It sounds nice, but it also feels unimaginable to most people.  But not Chris Pacheco—he's living proof that a cure is on its way. (It might already be here!) After 36 years of living with T1D, Chris no longer has to live the same way because of his participation in the Eledon Clinical Trial. Thanks to Eversense for sponsoring the Diabetes Nerd Podcast.
