Type 1 Diabetes in childhood is HARD! What happens to glycaemic control through adolescence & young adulthood? Hayley & Jaimee talk about the evidence highlighting how diabetes management can become even more challenging through the teen & young adult years.

Does that first year after diagnosis impact on the future? In this episode, we use some evidence from the research to talk about our experiences and thoughts on the challenges of T1D from diagnosis, and through the younger years. We hope sharing some research & some personal experiences helps people feel less alone, & maybe even help prepare (as much as possible) for some of the possible hurdles.

Research articles:

  • Children’s and young People’s diabetes services: What works well and what doesn’t? N. Kime, S. Zwolinsky, A. Pringle , F. Campbell (2022). Public Health in Practice 3
  • Glycaemic Control in Youth and Young Adults: Challenges and Solutions,  Khadilkar, A. &  Oza, C. (2022). Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy 2022:15 121–129
