UK v US Healthcare: My Experience | Shes Diabetic Shes Diabetic 2023-06-04 | My experience as a person with a chronic condition who moved from the UK to the US ◉ Subscribe: goo.gl/ZfjYfuJust under a year ago I moved from the UK to the US. Having spent all of my adult life thus far in the UK, whose' healthcare system is funded by the NHS (Universal Nationalized Healthcare). As a result, I had no interaction with the US healthcare system or even paying for my healthcare...until now. Living with Type 1 Diabetes is hard enough, the American Healthcare system has taken this difficulty to another level.DISCLAIMER: This is just my experience. My experience is the only one I feel comfortable speaking from (always on this channel), so please remember that I'm not speaking for everyone in this video and I fully recognize people have many different and contrasting opinions to mine. ◉ Facebook: facebook.com/ShesDiabetic ◉ Instagram: ShesDiabetic ◉ Share this video: youtu.be/r6N1yQ93waM
Diabetes Goal Setting | Shes Diabetic Shes Diabetic 2023-12-24 | A step-by-step walk through of how I set my diabetes goals for the year ahead ◉ Subscribe: goo.gl/ZfjYfuNew Year. Same Diabetes. I'm not a fan of extreme New Year's Resolutions - probably becuase I know I'd never be able to stick to them, and also probably because any big change is infinitely more complicated when you live with Type 1 Diabetes. However, I am a big fan of taking stock, reflecting on the past and setting solid, actionable intentions for the future. So in today's video, I'm sharing how I set goals, specifically relating to my Type 1 Diabetes, and how I create solid, actionable steps to pursue those goals, while including a healthy dose of room for error, fun, and most of all - prioritizing my mental health through it all.◉ Facebook: facebook.com/ShesDiabetic ◉ Instagram: ShesDiabetic ◉ Share this video: youtu.be/pOAAJsdAVP0

My Tandem t:slim x2 Insulin Pump Review | Shes Diabetic Shes Diabetic 2021-04-04 | My Review of the Tandem t:slim x2 Insulin Pump ◉ Subscribe: goo.gl/ZfjYfuChoosing an insulin pump is an extremely personal choice, perhaps one of the biggest choices a Diabetic will make in his or her life. Since switching from the Medtronic 640g to the Tandem t:slim x2 , I’ve had a lot of questions about this process; how I came to choose it and what I like/dislike about it, so I thought it best to make a video about this very subject, with the hope that it will help others with their big decision. All diabetics have a unique and varied set of requirements depending on what they want and need out out their device, so I can’t stress enough how important it is to do your own research in finding the right pump for your needs. And I really hope this is a helpful resource in that quest!00:00 Introduction1:36 Basic Tech Specs2:42 PROS2:50 Size3:44 Color Screen4:42 Upgradable Software5:45 General Customization6:00 Bespoke Site Change Reminders6:51 Multiple Basal Rate Profiles7:18 Integrated Carb Calculator9:00 Customer Service9:56 Dexcom G6 Integration10:51 CONS10:56 No Belt Clip12:08 Sticky Top Button13:41 Multiple Confirmation Steps14:47 Chunky Tubing Connector15:50 Plugging it in to Charge17:17 Occlusion Alarms19:27 Insulin Wastage20:43 ConclusionPRODUCTS MENTIONEDPump Peelz (where my screen cover is from)www.pumppeelz.comBelt Clipamazon.com/gp/product/B01N99KYGG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1External Charging Packamazon.com/Anker-PowerCore-Ultra-Compact-High-Speed-Technology/dp/B01CU1EC6Y/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=anker+charging+pack&qid=1617526908&sr=8-5OTHER VIDEOS THAT MAY BE HELPFULMy Review of the Medtronic 640g Insulin Pumpyoutube.com/watch?v=ibN2uRnUEWQ&t=19sThe Honest Truth About Switching to an Insulin Pumpyoutube.com/watch?v=wVr89eDEKqcMy Dexcom G6 Reviewyoutube.com/watch?v=q0cnaHhRnE4&t=100s◉ Facebook: facebook.com/ShesDiabetic ◉ Instagram: ShesDiabetic ◉ Share this video: youtu.be/C0eYIMiPCIo
