It's America's only FDA cleared smart insulin plan plus an

app system. It's going to help your CGM talk to your insulin pen, talk to a

wonderful app on your phone that's going to tell you about things like

insulin on board,

the temperature of your insulin, and a lot more. You'll hear more about it in the show. But if you're

on MDI or you're thinking of moving to MDI, I think you want the impen. Companion Medical.com.

I'd be lying if I told you I knew a lot about competitive paddleboarding and surfing,

but Fiona Wild does and I talked to her about it, along with her type 1 diabetes diagnosis and how she manages her type 1 while she's doing this sort of well not sort of but this really intensive activity

always in the water too you know so kind of seems like it doesn't match up, but

Fiona really makes it work.

Please remember that nothing you hear on the Juice Box podcast should be considered advice medical or otherwise

and to always consult a physician before making any changes to your health care plan or

becoming bold with insulin. Oh, right. So, My name is Fianna Wild. I am 22 years old. I live in a really cool place called Hood River, Oregon, and I was diagnosed with Diaphone diabetes when I was 18 on my high school graduation day.

Oh my God. Yeah. Yeah. It was a very exciting

morning and a very terrifying afternoon. But yeah, you know sometimes those things just kind of come together like that, I guess.
