I can't see any way to sign up to these trials John. Or am I being dense?

I am a patient of Prof' Luqmani. Can I sign up to the Mepolizumab trial when I see him at my next appointment?

Dear John,

I had a 'check-up', at Addenbrooke's Hospital recently, Monday actually. I was intending to ask, about this research when 'they' asked me! So I'm now doing my 'bit', as it were. The nurse even offered to do my clinic 'bloods'- saving me having to wait for their phlebotomist (I knew I wouldn't spell that one quite right, but I was actually reasonably close).

I'll keep you- indeed everyone- 'posted' about how I get on.

Kind regards AndrewT

Thank you Andrew. It's good that some are prepared to put themselves out for the benefit of the greater good.

I am part of a scheme/study that is using "bits" they have of me for research, no doubt it is the same study.

Not what you're looking for?
