Being sick sucks. Being sick as a type 1 diabetes sucks more.
Cait recently had a virus and her insulin needs rocketed. In this episode, she and Tracy chat about what happens to blood sugar when you're ill, the reason sick diabetics end up in hospital, and the sick-day rules you need to know to stay safe.
Plus, some surprising things about common cold and flu medicines that can affect blood sugar or CGM readings.
