Diabetes Survival Skills - How to Prepare for Emergencies

When your CGM fails, your pump dies, or you're caught in a situation without access to your tech, do you know what to do? Gary Scheiner and I break down the "back to basics" skills every T1D needs to know from manual carb counting to calculating correction doses without a pump, to safely transitioning from a pump to MDI (and back again). We also cover what belongs in your diabetes emergency go-bag and how to best manage your care in the event of a natural disaster.   Learn about the Eversense 365 CGM   Learn about Omnipod 5 (today's sponsor)*   Integrated Diabetes - work with Gary and his team   Join the T1D Exchange Registry (affiliate)   Join: Diabetech Newsletter (free) | Diabetech All Access   Follow Diabetech: Instagram | Tik Tok | YouTube | Facebook | Discord   Emergency Resources:  FRIO (10% off JUSTIN10) Your'e Just My Type Grown Up T1D Breakthrough T1D   DISCLAIMER: This podcast is not medical advice and is for educational purposes only.
