  What would make you more likely to participate in diabetes-related research? (Choose all that apply)
  Many trials don’t take older people. I’m 71 and get eliminated.

  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
