This week, managing type 1 diabetes into your 70s is a bit of uncharted waters.. While thankfully more and more people are living long with T1D, that wasn't always the case. I'm taking to Dianne Mattiace who is in her early 70s and was diagnosed as an adult, 30 years ago. She was the first person in the US to use the Eversense CGM when it was approved in 2018 and she's still using it today. She answers your questions about this implantable CGM, why she's stayed with it and what else she does to manage in retirement and beyond.
