31. Jen: I was diagnosed with Type 3c Diabetes, here is my story
Jen has been living with type 3c diabetes for 4 years. Jen was diagnosed with pancreatitis which led to her having a pancreatectomy. A pancreatectomy is the removal of part or all of the pancreas. This led to Jen’s diagnosis of type 3 c diabetes. We have a deep conversation about this whole process for Jen and adjusting to life after the operation as someone living with type 3c diabetes. We also discuss:
- Jen living with an autoimmune kidney condition
- being insulin dependant and being insulin resistant
- why Jen joined the type 3 diabetes
- the importance of people living with type 3c diabetes finding their tribe
