My name is Dwayne, and at the beginning of 2024, I received a life-changing diagnosis of type 2 diabetes after battling various health complications like sleep apnea, hypertension, and erectile dysfunction. At that time, my weight was 247 lbs. and my A1C level was 7.2. This marked a turning point in my life as I made a decision to prioritize my health and well-being.
I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at nine years old, which changed my life forever. One minute I was an average nine-year-old, the next I had to deal with the constant challenges of diabetes, including getting several shots each day, learning how to carb count, multiple finger pricks, and many sleepless nights. I was very scared because I had no idea what type 1 diabetes was. I thought it meant something about dying because it had “dia” in the word.
