  • Navigating the insurance maze with T1D with consultant (and D-Mom) Emily Adams
    Jul 16 2024

    This week, I think it’s fair to say that we all struggle with insurance issues. Diabetes – or any chronic condition – increases the hoops we jump through, the expense and the stress. I’m talking to Emily Adams an employee benefits consultant to get some advice about how to navigate. Emily thought she knew the system pretty well, but then her daughter was diagnosed with type 1 and she learned on a personal level how complex our system is.

  • My son was diagnosed with T1D at age two. How was his first year away at college?
    Jul 9 2024

    When my son was diagnosed with type 1 more than 17 years ago, the day he’d leave home seemed very far away, but also something we knew we needed to plan for. Well, Benny finished his Freshman year of college – he goes to school 300 miles away – and he’s here to talk about it. We answer your questions about how it went, how he managed, how I managed and what’s next.

I’m Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX In the news is brought to you by Edgepark simplify your diabetes journey with Edgepark XX The first ever generic GLP-1 medication will soon be available in the US. It’s a generic of Victoza, originally approved by the FDA in 2010 for diabetes, is part of the same class of drugs that includes Ozempic and Mounjaro. Liraglutide is Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (otherwise known as GLP-1s or GLP-1 RAs) are a class of incretin drugs that mimic the body’s natural hormones to help treat diabetes and obesity. However, the popularity of the drugs has spiraled out of control at times, leading to shortages and supply chain issues in the US and abroad. The arrival of a GLP-1 generic drug provides reasons to be hopeful for doctors and patients alike, but there are also caveats. Couple of caveats - liraglutide is injected once daily (vs. weekly) and many doctors say it doesn’t work as well for as many people as semaglutide and terzepatide. No confirmation on the price Two other generic options are being developed and could launch in December 2024. Patents for newer GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy won’t expire until several years down the road https://www.healthline.com/health-news/victoza-generic-glp1-drug-available XX Senseonics plans to launch a 365-day sensor in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of this year. A one-year Eversense CGM could be a game changer for the company. In 2024, Senseonics expects to more than double U.S. new patient starts and increase the global installed base by around 50%. The growth is built on the current 180-day version of Senseonics’ implantable Eversense CGM. Eversense’s 180-day sensor can need calibrating twice a day, something Senseonics CEO Tim Goodnow said “has been a competitive disadvantage.” Users calibrate the 365-day sensor once a week. Senseonics is in talks with insulin pump manufacturers about integrating its Eversense CGM with their devices but has yet to commit to a timeline for finalizing an agreement. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/senseonics-365-day-cgm-2025-sales/719717/ XX People who take Ozempic or Wegovy may have a higher risk of developing a rare form of blindness, a new study suggests. Still, doctors say it shouldn’t deter patients from using the medicines to treat diabetes or obesity. Last summer, doctors at Mass Eye and Ear noticed an unusually high number of patients with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, or NAION, a type of eye stroke that causes sudden, painless vision loss in one eye. The condition is relatively rare — up to 10 out of 100,000 people in the general population may experience it — but the doctors noted three cases in one week, and each of those patients was taking semaglutide medications. The risk was found to be greatest within the first year of receiving a prescription for semaglutide. The study, published Wednesday in the medical journal JAMA Ophthalmology, cannot prove that semaglutide medications cause NAION. And the small number of patients — an average of about 100 cases were identified each year — from one specialized medical center may not apply to a broader population. The ways that semaglutides interact with the eyes are not entirely understood. And the exact cause of NAION is not known either. The condition causes damage to the optic nerve, but there is often no warning before vision loss. For now, patients who are taking semaglutide or considering treatment should discuss the risks and benefits with their doctors, especially ...
