Hi, my name is Lindsay. I am 48 years old, and a type 2 diabetic. I use tujeo insulin, and a forxiga tablet. I have a libre 2 glucose checking sensor. I am also totally blind, and use anIPhone with a screen reader called voiceover which reads what is on the screen. I have been blind since birth.

Hi @LovingLindsay1 and welcome to the forums. I am very glad to see that you can manage your diabetes while totally blind and very impressed by your technology.

Hi and welcome @LovingLindsay1 . Great to see you on here. I have an eye disease, so just visually impaired, not blind. I have to make my texts big to be able to read them. My low light/night time vision can look like my own personal light show. I also use audio books. I might check the 'VoiceOver' out.

Any questions just shout. :)
