Bridging the Gap: Helping People Get the Diabetes Care They Need | Eritrea Mussa

from My Hero 360 · host My Hero 360

In this important interview, Kerri Fitzgerald talks with Eritrea Mussa who has lived with type 1 diabetes since she was 8 years old and had a subsequent frightening experience with diabetic macular edema (DME), a diabetes-related condition that impacts your eyesight. She feared she might lose her eyesight but with the help of her doctor and appropriate treatment, she was able to manage the condition. Eritrea is committed to educating others on living with diabetes and DME and connecting people to resources to help them manage their condition. Throughout this we highlight: How Eritrea Mussa participated in several clinical trials when she was younger. Learn about the impacts of type 1 diabetes and DME that Eritrea experienced. How a treatment called Vabysmo® (faricimab-svoa) helped treat Eritrea’s DME. Be inspired by Eritrea’s commitment to shining a light on access and affordability challenges many people face and inspiring others to take control of their condition and their lives.
