World Series champ Adam Duvall made this young player’s YEAR with a card he’ll never forget ❤️ Avery is a diabetic baseball player, who collects cards of pros that are just like him 👊 Duvall, who also has Type 1 diabetes, is Avery's favorite player. We told Adam about this story, and he decided to give Avery a big surprise 👀 After signing & inscribing this trading card for Avery, he also sent a heartfelt video... "Hopefully one day, I'll be collecting your cards" 🥹

Yes thank you! Diagnosed at 39. Primary physician refused to believe I was T-1 and had me go for 3 weeks with 300+ levels with only taking metformin b4 finally seeing Endo (and finally getting insulin).

This hits home, I can’t even imagine how challenging this was though. My original diagnosis was mismanaged so badly and had I not been able to seek out an amazing endo not sure where I’d be…
"People would tell me throughout the last ten years, ‘Maybe you should get retested and see if you’re actually type 1.’ I wish at the time my doctors would’ve gave me more care and ran more tests." #SeeTheSigns beyondtype1.org/type2diabete…

I too, was originally diagnosed as T2D with all of the symptoms (hindsight is 20/20, right?). I was training to climb Kiliminjaro so was thirsty all of the time; I was sweating at night - attributed to menopause, losing a ton of weight - new medication. A year later, at 57, T1D.

T1D is an 24/7 job in addition to career and motherhood.

Women often already have a complicated relationship with body image and food. Diabetes complicates it even more

Hormones can totally mess up your blood sugars, often you can pinpoint the exact time in your cycle... Some days my insulin just barely works, and doctor didn't know what to do about it. Started taking the pill on my initiative and it helps – why can't a doctor come up with this?

If I had known the signs, I could have been diagnosed and begun treating my #T1D months earlier. For women -- yeast infections, too!

This is a serious problem! As a type 1 diabetic I went through exactly what is described here! If you have these symptoms, go to your doctor or any clinic.
