#77 Diabetes
In this episode of the HSE Talking Health and Wellbeing Podcast, we discuss Diabetes with Dr. Kate Gajewska, Clinical Manager for Advocacy and Research, Diabetes Ireland and Dr. Cathy Breen, Interim Dietetic Lead – HSE, National Clinical Programme for Diabetes about Diabetes. They discuss the different types of diabetes—Type 1, Type 2, and gestational—highlighting their symptoms and different risk factors. They discuss the importance of early diagnosis and how many people may live undiagnosed for years, only discovering their condition when complications arise. The episode highlights the complexity of diabetes, the important role of self-management, as well as highlighting free resources available. Recognising the diabetes is a serious but treatable condition.
