Interesting, thanks.

I do love the comment that steroid reduction is a bizarre experience. Don't we know it!

Sarah Mackie and others looked at it last year I think it was. They found a good half of patients had problems reducing over the final stage. Something I'd been saying to her for ages! I think the research should have a patient-led component!

That’s what I’ll be telling her tomorrow - do you think she’ll listen to me?

First consultation with Sarah Mackie. I could mention your name! Ha ha!
