Hello everyone

I hope you are all well and enjoying the warmer weather (although Brighton had thick fog all day today).

Sorry I've been rather quiet of late, I've been putting all my energy into getting well after a really bad few weeks/months and it seems to be working.

I'm now ready and raring to go for the fibro conference next week. Laptop case ordered, lots of pretty stationery and notebooks at the ready and hoping and praying there is a bath in my room for big bubble baths!

If anyone has any final thoughts/questions/queries etc they have or would like me to try and find out/focus on, do let me know.

If I'm well enough I will be giving you all a brief run down of the day's activities each evening, however, bubble baths will come both before and after!!!

Look forward to hearing all your thoughts :)

Karen xx

Hello Ian123,

I read this too recently, it's an antiviral with a NSAID isn't it?

For those who haven't read about it, I'll try to find a link and post it.

Best Wishes

Yes that reports on stage two where positive results suggest larger scale testing before the treatment can be approved.

There will be speakers from both the USA and Canada I believe so they might be able to shed some light on this. Thanks for the question :)
