I was on the bus the other day and noticed a poster looking people for medical research........but I didn't have time to write down or even remember any of the details.

Anyone happen to have the details? It had white writing on a black background!

Cheers! :)

    It's MDS (can't remember what it stands for sorry). My husband did a trial for them in 1991 - nasal sprays I think. Got paid well for it. Only draw back was the 13 blood tests a day!!

    i don't think anyone has died as of yet (and i really hope they don't), but a couple (at least) are in comas etc.

    It's the chance you take with medical research i'm afraid. It may never happen to you, but it COULD....
    The word is BOUGHT, not BROUGHT.
    It's LOSE, NOT LOOSE.
    You ask for ADVICE not ADVISE.
