Pip Pack Member - Diana

Please share a story that comes to mind that portrays your personal experience and journey with diabetes (age of diagnosis, playing on a sports team, managing lows while traveling, etc.

I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in March of 1999. I believe I had diabetes much longer than that, though. I am insulin dependent in which my body does not produce insulin at all.

How has Pip contributed to your diabetes journey and what makes you excited about joining the Pip Pack?

Pip has contributed to my diabetes by making it much easier and less painful when I check my blood glucose. I wish I would have discovered Pip many, many years ago.

What have you learned from your experiences with diabetes?

If my blood sugars aren’t managed well, my life is not managed well.
