The Trial begins

I finally got the go-ahead for the trial on Friday at 4.30pm after some chasing, but at least I'm not HIV positive!

So here I am in isolation, everyone who comes in the room, including Frank has to wear a mask, apron and gloves. I've had the infusions and all the initial tests so now I'm just under observation with a few checks every couple of hours. So fa so good, no obvious symptoms from the virus yet but it's only been 24 hours, I expect tomorrow will be the day. They are a bit concerned about the wound on my foot so a skin specialist is going to look at it tomorrow.

The hospital room has an en-suite so it doesn't feel like being in hospital, you don't see any patients just the nurses and doctors. I suppose you could compare it to private hospital treatment. but without the bottle of wine
:-( The food is OK too, you get choices of meals and it's served to the room.

Having said all that I will be glad to get out on Friday, so fingers crossed I continue not to feel ill and there won't be any obstacles.
