We Did It!
By the skin of my teeth I made it to Day 1 of the trial and was able to start yesterday! It was nerve wracking right up to the last minute as I currently have a sinus infection that almost delayed my start. Luckily my lungs are healthy and the infection is isolated so they ultimately gave me the green light. Woohoo!!! Many thanks to those who have been rooting for me and crossing your fingers alongside of me...it worked! Phase One of the trial will last 8 weeks and then I'll have 8 weeks off (no pills) before starting another 8 weeks on a different pill. I am overjoyed to have made it into this study and realistically optimistic. I am so grateful for this opportunity and the chance to do my tiny part in helping new drugs get FDA approved.
