#32 Diabetes Tech: When It Fails and How To Recognize It
In this episode, Dr. Donohoe and Dr. Panno discuss the frustrations of diabetes "tech" failing, such as the pump, glucometer, CGM, insulin, etc. We walk through our thought process when we see a high blood glucose reading. Is it due to food, our physiology, or our "tech?" We also talk about the mental/emotional tax that it has on you when you do everything right and yet you have poor blood sugar control due to something that is so unexpected and not necessarily your fault.
