Your modifiable risk factors, turned into a plan
Dr. Rob is prototyping a Modifiable Risk Factor Motivator widget on Stroke first. When it ships it embeds right here — turning each Type 1 Diabetes-relevant risk factor into a tracked, evidence-backed action.
If you ever need to explain your Type 1 Diabetes in 30 seconds, start here.
“I have type 1 diabetes. My pancreas doesn’t make insulin, so I take insulin every day — injections or pump — and I check my blood sugar all the time. I wanted you to know because if I look pale, sweaty, confused, or unconscious, that’s likely low blood sugar — please give me juice or candy fast, or if I’m unresponsive, glucagon if you have it, and call 911.”

What T1D Actually Is
Autoimmune destruction of pancreas insulin cells. Lifelong insulin therapy required.
Why You Take Insulin
Your body makes none. Without it, blood sugar spirals into DKA within hours.
Spot the Red Flags
Severe low (unresponsive) ยท DKA (fruity breath, fast breathing, vomiting) ยท 911.
Triggers & Patterns
Stress, illness, exercise, hormones, alcohol โ all shift glucose. Patterns help.
Numbers That Matter
A1C, time-in-range, GMI, glucose variability, ketones when high.
Insulin Daily
Basal/bolus or pump. Carb-counting if MDI. Site rotation.
CGM Use
Continuous glucose monitor reveals patterns no fingersticks could. Trust the arrows.
Carb Counting + Pre-bolus
Eat, dose, time โ get the trio right and you stay in range.
Exercise & Insulin
Adjust before, during, after. Bring fast carbs. Hydrate.
Make Every Visit Count
Bring CGM data, pump report, sick-day history, hypo events.
Your Care Team
Endocrinologist, diabetes educator, dietitian, pump trainer, eye doc, podiatrist.
Tech Stack
Pumps, CGMs, hybrid closed-loop, smartphone apps. Settings matter.
Insurance & Cost
Insulin and pump supplies expensive. Manufacturer programs, 340B, advocacy.
Teach & Mentor
Newly diagnosed kids and adults need lived experience. Yours is gold.
Fight Stigma
T1D vs T2D confusion is constant. Educate, don't get tired.
Research & Trials
Hybrid closed-loop, beta-cell transplants, immunotherapies, smart insulins.
