What's Next for #OpenAPS and Dana Lewis?

Dana Lewis first created #DIYPS in December 2013, just so she could better hear her her continuous glucose monitor (CGM) alarms better. Since that time Dana, and many other diabetes tech pioneers, have pushed forward with the Open Artificial Pancreas System. 5 years later we look at what Dana's doing now and what she has in mind for the future.  Dana also shares what the FDA and healthcare companies can learn from the do it yourself community. We also talk about what holds back many people (like Stacey) from jumping it DIY diabetes tech and why Dana says we shouldn't let our fears stop us.  Learn more about The Nightscout Project Listen to interviews with others in the #WeAreNotWaiting community here.  In our Know Better segment, Stacey shares a new study about about emotions and stacking insulin, and we explain what "stacking" means when it come to diabetes and dosing.  Join the Diabetes Connections Facebook Group! ----- 1:25 Stacey welcome  2:45 Find out more about our Alexa skill and please leave a review! 4:45 Interview with Dana Lewis Listen to Stacey's 2013 interview with Dana here 51:00 Know Better segment: All about emotional bolusing 59:00 Where will Stacey be?       April: Touched by Type 1        May: Lilly Blogger Summit      May: JDRF One Challenge with Riding on Insulin      July: Children with Diabetes Friends for Life ----- Sign up for our newsletter here Get the App and listen to Diabetes Connections wherever you go!
