On World Diabetes Day, we raise awareness for painful diabetic polyneuropathy, an often overlooked complication of diabetes. Affecting about one in three diabetes patients, polyneuropathy can cause severe pain and significantly impact a patient’s quality of life. Early detection and an accurate diagnosis are crucial for an effective treatment. Listen in as Stephanie Haack, a young diabetes patient, shares her experiences with diabetic polyneuropathy. #WorldDiabetesDay #polyneuropathy #patientvoices #WorldFreeOfPain #WeAreGrünenthal

There are some super exciting updates in T1 Diabetes on this podcast from Dr. Edelman and Anastasia Albanese-O'Neill that I highly recommend. A couple of compelling reasons to screen early that stood out to me is that 80% of peope living with type 1 diabetes are the first diagnosed in their family but those family members are at 15X higher risk of being diagnosed in the future. Secondly, new therapies have emerged with additional ones in the pipeline that can delay the onset of insulin by 2-3 years on average! Key takeaway: We are entering a new era not only in management and prevention but in how we think about the disease and the broader connection to other auto-immune diseases like thyroid, Crohn's, and celiac, etc. There are so many more reasons to get screened than I realized!

My diabetes diagnosis story is very similar to a lot of people- I ended up in the emergency room at age 15 in #DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis). Recently I sat down with diabetes expert Anastasia Albanese-O'Neill to talk about the importance of screening for type 1 diabetes including preparing for a T1D diagnosis, avoiding DKA, and moving the needle in the delay and prevention of type 1 diabetes.

Today is World Diabetes Day – Know Your Risk! More than 250,000 people in Aotearoa have been diagnosed with diabetes, most of them with type 2 diabetes. While it typically develops in adults, type 2 diabetes is now affecting more young people and is more common among Māori, Pacific, and South Asian communities. Early diagnosis is key. Identifying type 2 diabetes early allows you to take action and manage it, helping to prevent complications. Find out if you’re at risk here: https://lnkd.in/g4tKdyA3

On World Diabetes Day, we spotlight the critical importance of accurate diabetes diagnosis. A recent study found that nearly one-third of individuals with Type 1 Diabetes were initially misdiagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, and over 75% did not receive essential autoantibody (AA) testing. These findings emphasize a need for more AA testing at screening and diagnosis.

Early diagnosis can be accomplished through relatively inexpensive testing of blood glucose. People with type 1 diabetes need insulin injections for survival. 😁 🤪 🥶 Here are five hashtags you could use for diabetes-related content: #DiabetesAwareness #Type1Diabetes #Type2Diabetes #DiabetesManagement #DiabetesSupport These can help connect with people in the diabetes community!

Topical beta-blockers are contraindicated in patients with bradycardia, second- and third-degree heart block, and uncompensated congestive heart failure due to potential adverse cardiac effects. However, they are safe for patients with hypertension or ischemic heart disease. Always assess individual patient conditions when prescribing. #Optometry #Glaucoma #HeartHealth #EyeCare #reviewofoptometry #studentoptometrist
