      When you experience an illness that makes your blood glucose levels more difficult to manage (whether because you are unable to eat, the stress of being sick, or any other reason), what resources do you refer to for help managing your blood glucose levels while sick? Please select all that apply to you.
      Only "illness" that makes it really difficult to control my blood sugar is getting steroid injections into my cervical spine or fingers. I leave my basal rate on my pump at 250% and need much higher bolus doses and many "extra" doses if my blood sugar remains really high. I tell the MD's that it turns my insulin into tap water and try to avoid it, experience with having gotten these injections over the past few years has helped, but having blood sugars of 400-500 despite much higher basal and bolus dosing is so frustrating!

      When I had surgery last year and couldn't exercise for a few months, my time-in-range was very good. I was shocked but I shouldn't have been as exercise is one of the things that make my diabetes harder to keep under control. During recovery, I didn't have the ups-n-downs in blood sugar that I usually have when I exercise.

      I am in the Joslin Center 50 Year Medalist Program. At the time I lived on Cape Cod so convenient for me to drive for the testing. Once I left MA Joslin paid for the air flight to return for more testing. Once I die they will get parts of my body for further research.

        About 20 years ago when I hit about 50 yrs T1d, I applied to Joslin and they wanted proof…. my Doctors were all dead…. Now I am 90 years OLD and they all say I am too old…. ?????

        Sweet Charlie, the proof Joslin needed at the time I was accepted into the program was any doctor’s notes saying I was diabetic for ever how many years. My doctors were also dead ( T1 65 years) but I got some medical records from when my son was born in 1971 where the doctor had commented when I developed diabetes. That was all Joslin needed.

      As long as it doesn’t require immune suppression drugs and I don’t need to travel for hours, I’m willing to consider most research opportunities.

      I find that I am closed out of a vast majority of research studies because I am over 65 years old. Location is important. No immune suppression drugs (Covid 19). I would not participate in a study that would risk my health or life.

      Gloria, your participation in the 50 year Medalist Program with Joslin is admirable! I went to the Syracuse, NY Joslin for many years, and don’t remember hearing of the study. I would have been interested if I knew about it.

      So many reasons to want to contribute as a lab rat in diabetes research – so little trust remaining after the medical industry treatment of the COVID hoax. For me, I suspect I will never again trust the medical industry again after their dismal failure to currently or past choices to follow any even pretense of a medical scientific path with COVID. How low has our medical industry fallen?

      Even though I put the reasons I would be in a study, at 82 I am never the right age anymore.

      Transparency. I need clear information about the scientific foundation of the proposed research and the experimental design. I also need assurances that my privacy will be protected and that I will be informed about the results.

      I need to see a significant level of transparency from the team doing the research including but not limited to study design, Phase 1 and 2 results, *all* FDA communications regarding the drug or device and finally providing access to the full report and data after the study is complete or stopped.

      The literature is awash in the sewage of studies done on too few people to be significant and meaningless endpoints.

      I have been participating in clinical trials for thirty years, starting with epilepsy as science is built on observation and needs participants in order to learn. I chose more than three reasons, but if I were to rank them:
      1 Trust in the researchers or company handling the trial
      2 Something else – please share in the comments (Being able to prevent or cure diabetes completely)
      3 Contributing to research and helping other people with T1D
      4 Potential for better diabetes management plan or individualized treatment
      5 Potential for education/learning something new by being in the trial

      Trust is the most important issue. Do they truly understand diabetes or are they stuck in thinking T1 is little kids and T2 is lifestyle? If their basic assumption is so ignorant, will they be interested in learning truths that may contradict their suppositions? This is why compensation is important. If you aren’t going to pay, be upfront about it. Otherwise, I expect the check to arrive in the mail. Don’t ask me to “donate ” it back. If you are lying to me about this, what other lies are you telling?
