APS Type 1

I am hoping you can help us. My 10 year old niece, Sandy was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in March 07. She participated in the Protege Study in Nov,07. She completed the two week infusion at St. Barnanbas, Livingston, NJ. Her levels are still erratic, one week her #s are low to normal and the next week her levels sky-rocket. She is following her diet and of course is on a regular schedule with her medication. As you know the next phase is up next month. We are now faced with the decision on weather or not to put her though this again. Of course her doctor recommends completing the study. My question to you is have you seen any cases in which the first course of treatment did not seem successful and the 2nd did? This is very important that we know this as this will help us in determining our decision. Even if there is little chance that this will help our girl, we will go through it again but we dont want to go through this if it will hurt her or have negative side effects. I do understand that this is only at the clinical stage and nothing is guaranteed.
