  How concerned are you about the risks of islet cell transplantation such as unknown long-term effects or immune system response?
  Our collective lack of concern about the long term ought to put us at the top of the transplant list.

  For me, this is a hypothetical question. On the surface, I am not concerned, because it does not effect me . However, if I were seriously going to view this as a genuine therapy for me, I would be very seriously concerned about side effects and long-term effects or immune system response.

  Long term effects are not a worry to me after 50 years of T1D…..not sure that I have a long runway ahead of me. If it helps advance a better life for young people with T1D sign me up.

  Pinioned to youth, my comment may be difficult for some of you to understand. But at my age and experience level, long-term effects consists of what is going to happen in the next thirty to forty-five minutes. Sigh! 🎀 ྀིྀི

  Have you heard about tegoprupart, an immunosuppressant alternative with fewer side effects than traditional immunosuppressants, now being used for islet cell transplantation?
  Well the first person in this trial has been insulin-free for over 1-1/2 years and has been feeling fine. All 12 participants in this trial so far are off of insulin. The trial is now going to include people with t-1 diabetes and some kidney damage as this immunosuppressant (tegoprubart) has shown no toxic effects to islet cells or to kidneys. I will keep watching as the trial progresses. This question only asked if we had heard about it. I didn't see the question as an advertisement.

  Concern is relative to outcome. Getting a five year reprieve on the daily management of T1D might be worth it.

  Moderately as this is for others. I don't imagine being offered this myself.
