I would be very interested, but I don't live in Manchester but I do have a smart phone and fit the rest of your criteria

Hi Nicky, would you be able to travel to Manchester (1st date would be a choice of September 12,13 or 14, second date in December/January)? You are welcome to join if you're prepared to travel but we have to cap travel expenses at £15 per visit. If you're still interested please email koalap@manchester.ac.uk. Thanks, Louise.

Hi, have you had a chance to consider whether joining this study would be feasible for you in terms of travel?

Thanks

Louise

It's a shame you have to be over 50 or I would have met the criteria. I would love to see a study done for sufferers of OA who are younger. I'm 44 and was first diagnosed at age 39 with OA. I now have it in multiple joints both peripheral and axial.

Hi Roxhouse, would you be interested in taking part? I can check whether we can relax the age criteria. Would you please email me at koalp@manchester.ac.uk so we can discuss further?

Thanks

Louise

Yes I would!

Hi Roxhouse ,

Unfortunately we cannot accept anyone under 50 as we don't have ethics approval for this. I will let you know if this changes. Thanks for showing an interest.
