  • Hi guys, reading a few of these posts and just wondering if someone could answer a couple of questions of mine.

    I have just signed upto Biotrax and was hoping to hear from someone who has dealt with them before, and if they had a good/bad experience.

    I recieved a confirmation email for the london colds and flu vaccine research, and although it states generous pay for time and inconveinience, I was wondering if anybody knows roughly how much this would be?

    Also because I live in Portsmouth, and I would need to travel to London, do they pay travel expenses, or would that be included in the above.

    Thanks in advance for any help/advice :)

  • Hi everyone,

    I'm looking for people that have taken part in medical trials who like to make a tv programme about it, or maybe your thinking about signing up for some and its your first time.

    and if anyone has any experience good or bad with medical trials i would like to hear from you.
  • I took part in the india trek study to test travellers diarreah patches. It was amazing. If it ever comes up again I would highly recommend it!!!

    I've got a medical this week to see if I am eligible to take part in clinical trials. What will be involved in the medical? I assume they'll measure my height and weight, check my blood pressure, and take blood. Anything else? I'm worried they'll find something wrong with me!

    I'm currently taking part in a trial of a new meningitis vaccine, but I think its now closed to new people. Icon may be doing some but they tend to want non smokers which rules me out. :(
