What I didn't realize until last night is that she is worried about herself, too. All through dinner she was really quiet: then suddenly she says, 'Mom, I had my fasting blood sugar tested at the health center, and guess what? They said I have pre-diabetes since my glucose level was 188 mg/dl.

A friend of hers suggested using a health app targeted to help those with diabetes. Amanda is skeptical but know that she has to do something and “end up on insulin shots”. Amanda’s friend shows her how to download the free app from the app store on her smartphone. Amanda is excited that the app can track her glucose levels by syncing with her glucometer. She can even manually upload the glucose readings if she wishes. The app will display critical state messages if her glucose goes above a certain reading. The app uses the same criteria as the American Diabetes Association for glucose readings. The app can integrate datga from her fitness tracker; blood pressure, hemoglobin A1c levels…arrow_forward
