Conversations with Your Doctor Can Be Tough— But You Can Make Them Easier
Think back to your first doctor’s visit after being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes—the questions on your mind and the uncertainty about how to ask them. Finding the confidence to speak up takes time. That’s why we’ve teamed up with expert endocrinologist Dr. Manasi Jaiman and content creator Mary Comeau, who has spent 17 years living with type 1 and built a following of more than 1 million people by sharing her experience. Together they unpack the conversations that count—sex, alcohol and other drugs, safe driving, and dealing with overbearing parents—so you can start strong and stay in control as a young adult with type 1 diabetes.
