Two endocrinologists take on the wheel’s diabetes curveballs, and along the way, two common conditions come up: chronic kidney disease and MASH

What if learning about diabetes felt less like a lecture and more like game night? That’s the idea behind TCOYD’s Wheel of Misfortune, a game show where the wheel determines the next diabetes challenge, and quick thinking is essential to stay in the game. The contestants are two endocrinologists who both live with type 1 diabetes, TCOYD founder Dr. Steve Edelman and his longtime co-host, Dr. Jeremy Pettus.

Every spin brings a new challenge, from the everyday curveballs of life with diabetes to bigger health questions that are far more common than most people realize. About 4 in 10 adults with diabetes have chronic kidney disease (CKD) and more than 70% of people with type 2 diabetes may have extra fat in the liver, which leads to a condition called MASH. Both tend to develop quietly, without symptoms, and a few routine tests may catch them early. Today there are more ways than ever to protect your kidneys and liver. Watch the full video to play along, then stay for Steve and Jeremy’s expert guide to CKD and MASH, including the tests worth asking your care team about.
