Hey guys, I need your advice. My infectious disease doctor has invited me to participate in a blind clinical study regarding a vaccine for ecoli and UTIs. (Embrace UTI vaccine clinical trial)

Anyone ever participate in a trial and what can I expect?

I didn't get my flu shot..... I was going to do it next week. I was trying to time it for 2 weeks after Remicade... And now--per the study--I can't get it for 28 days after I take the study vaccine.

Thoughts?

Clo, I've never participated in a trial so I'm no help there. The only member I can think of off hand that did a trial was suzy-q, her husband was in the Xeljanz trial. I went online & did a search & found the website. If you decide to participate you can always opt out.

Good luck with whatever you decide.
