"TikTok saved my life" - How Justin went from misdiagnosed to inspiring others with diabetes

For adults with type 1, an initial misdiagnosis of type 2 diabetes is unfortunately, all too common. What's perhaps more unusual is what happened to this week's guest who was correctly diagnosed by TikTok! Justin Eastzer talks to me about the community support he found even before he was correctly diagnosed, how it led him to creating his own diabetes videos and content – you may know him better as Diabetech, and how his experience with cancer as a very young adult shaped his life.
