Welcome to the Type 1 John podcast!
Listener to the podcast Hannah has decided that I need a pump.
Now, if you know absolutely nothing about insulin pumps, press play now because I’m going to ask the questions you probably would.
What actually is the point of having one? What does it feel like? Does it make life easier? Is it just more technology to worry about? And if you’ve been doing injections for years, why on earth would you suddenly want to change?
Because I’ve been doing Type 1 for 10 years and I’ve never had one.
Insulin pens, Dexcom, crack on. That’s been my system.
But the more I hear about what pumps can actually do now, the more I’m wondering whether I’m looking at the future of Type 1 diabetes without even realising it.

And if you’re new around here...
This podcast is me figuring out type 1 diabetes - after winging it for 10 years! Getting a grip, before it gets a grip on me.
It’s not perfect diabetes. But it’s honest diabetes!
And hopefully, along the way, making a few friends who are in the same place.
If any of this sounds like you, hit subscribe and come along for the ride. And maybe we can remind each other that we’re not nearly as alone as we sometimes think.
