      I'm close to 80. No researchers are interested people my age so I don't give it much thought.

      With the comments I see here there should be more research about aging with T1d. Just an idea…

      I do not qualify for most surveys and when I do, they want private information I do not want to give them, because I do not know how secure their computers ate.

      You get very few opportunities to volunteer when you're over 75.

      Only a few. Mainly blood tests and surveys. The others often have restrictions that don’t allow me to participate.

      I participated in the Look Ahead program by Brown University and Miriam Hospital. It was about diabetes, heart disease and weight control. I was in the control group and the first year I gained weight and found out I had heart disease. The stress test at the beginning of the trial showed an abnormality, so I already had a cardiologist when I needed my first of 16 stents.

      I participated in Tandem's trial for ControlIQ and several Dexco. Adhesive trials. Long ago I participated in a study for non-invasive blood glucose testing using a technique called Ramen Spectrum Analysis using different frequenciesof light, that trial could not raise funds to continue.

      Various studies at the Joslin Clinic, the first one back in 2010-2011 for CGMs to be covered by medical insurance companies. I also have done a pizza study to determine how to gauge the longer response by the body to eating pizzas with all its fats.

      Several times. Found out that my pancreas is about 25% of the size it “ought to be” for someone my age. Who knew? Just turned down an opportunity to transform into a lab rat for 8 months on tests of a new insulin product. Weekly clinic visits, four finger sticks a day, two additional devices to tote around and a change in CGM brand. Sorry, not for me.

      I’ve participated in a couple different ones. One was muscle biopsies on the legs…looking at how long term diabetes may affect muscles. Another on different pumps

      I have taken surveys about diabetes care and participate in All of US DNA research and I am doing that now answering these questions each day.

      How important is diabetes research to you?
      Due to age, etc, it probably won't benefit me personally but it's extremely important for the future! After all, isn't T1D going to be cured within 5 - 10 years? ;)

      Strange question—all insulin development, medical devices — e.g. CGMS, pumps, etc are all research products. Would I rather go back to the starvation diet I was given and pills that didn’t work?

      Algorithm, thaumaturge, or dumb luck. Who cares, as long as the TIR remains TIR? ヽ(o≧ω≦o)ノ

      I am using Tandem X2/Dexcom G6 Control IQ, and am happy with the results.

      I tried DIY looping but felt like the G5 wasn’t accurate for me to get good results. G6 is better but still often 20 points or more off compared to fingersticks.

      I have Medtronic 770 and while the sensors work great for me, I don’t like the algorithm keeping me higher than I like, especially overnight.

      Control IQ has been a game changer for me. I had good averages before but often got lows at night. The rate of this w CIQ is greatly reduced. I only get low at night now if I give too much insulin for snacks in the evening- so then it is really my fault.
