Topic: Battling Insulin Intimidation in Type 2 Diabetes
On this "spooky" Halloween Week in the USA, I tackle a tricky topic of insulin intimidation.  Often insulin can be used as a threat to "straighten up" by medical professionals, when in fact, it's a lifesaving tool to manage blood sugars.  Learn how to battle insulin intimidation.  Also, learn the fascinating story of Elizabeth Hughes Gossett, one of the first children to receive insulin after it was discovered in 1921.

Diabetes Dilemmas (Q&A):
I answer a Diabetes Dilemma question on determining your medication options outside of using Metformin.
