In 2024 I was invited to take part in a clinical trial for a drug to cure “fatty liver” which is incurable at present. My GP practice put me up for it as I am honest about what I drink!
After 2 hours of testing including what would be called “violence” if it happened in the street I was told I can’t join the trial as there’s nowt wrong with my liver - Result!!
Oh and Ryder has brought me home safe and sound, thank you!! He’s now cream crackerd!!
