Driving with Diabetes Study

2013 February 5

Last week when I was at my endo for a pump training for a trial of an insulin pump that I am starting this week, my doctor gave me a print out for a Driving with Diabetes test / study.  The information is below.

Do you have Type 1 Diabetes?

Are you 18-70 Years Old?

Do you Drive Regularly?

  • An internet program developed to potentially help ALL drivers with Type 1 Diabetes.

    I’m currently enrolled in this 2+ year study. Started it a few weeks ago.

    I just applied. Can’t lie – a little extra money would be nice.

    I don’t know if I meet the eligibility requirements. I am very cautious about not driving low so I have not had any incidents.
