Community Stories – Diabetes, Part 5

When we announced our Diabetes Awareness Charity Special, we asked you to share your stories of living with diabetes, and health in general, and how Munzee has helped you. We’ve gotten a handful of stories that we will be sharing, and we hope these encourage you to share yours. These stories have been edited to exclude personal information unless explicitly stated.

I have had type 2 diabetes for years and have struggled to get my A1C within the high normal range.

My doctor recommended I walk after eating, which is a great suggestion but extremely boring and chore oriented. Under the circumstances, it didn’t last long.

Munzee is the perfect activity to get the A1C moving in the right direction. I try to Munzee daily for a little while – because it’s fun….not just for my health.

My A1C is still .2 away from where it should be — 7.2 down from 9.5.

Saying Munzee is saving my life is probably a bit of an exaggeration; however, it helps with diabetes, lung problems, stress, and keeps me active as I grow older.

Thank you for the focus on health within the game
