Guest guest Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Brett Will be 2-4 weeks before they will have a complete report for me and the doctor and I will discuss it. Biggest thing for time will be analyzing the 20 tubes of blood and the pathologist reviewing my slides and discussions with the pulmonologist about them. Also, the pulmonologist will need to go back through my records based on information from these tests and pull all the accumulated information together. As to the clinical trial, that became secondary in my mind. If I do participate, I'll actually go to Tulane for that as the standards and protocols are all the same so one center versus another really wouldn't matter per our discussions. Tulane isn't close, but it's 400 miles closer than Chicago. I didn't make it to the aquarium as the weather had turned horrible by Thursday so I just headed on out. And, actually, though it would have been nice, had I had the extra time, I would have preferred using it to see a couple of people from here while on the trip, some who lived not that far from my path. I did see something better than the aquarium....Leanne. > > Bruce, > have you heard anything from chicago ? > are they going to contact you if you can participate in the study ? > did you make it to the aquarium ? > > Brett Bowser > familial UIP/IPF 11/07 40 Mi. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
