Useful & grateful
Following a heart attack and cardiac arrest (STEMI) at 51 I was tested and found to have elevated levels of LP(a) which was probably a contributing factor.
Shortly afterwards I was recruited on to a medical trial on a drug which was developed to lower the LP(a).
The nurse I work with on the trial, Tracy, is always very helpful and informative, keeping me up to date on the progress of the trial, advising on wider health matters and ensuring I am on the appropriate medication. She makes me aware of the contribution I am making by participating in the trial and how it will benefit others in the future
