Hi all

Summer, I assume you are talking about 'BiP' which is a potential new therapy that has been in the press today. The following is a story int he Daily Express, in which Ailsa is quoted:

express.co.uk/news/uk/37634...

It is always good news when new therapies are being worked on, especially when they work in a different way to existing medications, but obviously this is still at an early stage, so we'll have to wait and see what comes out of it further down the line.

Kind regards

Victoria

I've read with great interest. It will be wonderful for all, if it is successful.

P.S. I think you are in the middle Alison, sitting down of course.

Trouble is there only appear to be 50 people on the trials and as far as I can see it will be at least 2 years before it goes to NICE. I cannot see anything on line today.

I Think it will be years x
