Sorry to read about your RA and your fathers AS. If either of you is suffering badly you may want to speak to a rheumatologist about anti-tnf treatment. Its difficult to get funding for it in this country but it can make a world of difference. I know as I am one of the lucky few
This does lead on to one issue regarding Phorm too. Phorm claim that will be ignoring sensitive medical information but how are they going to achieve this? Some kind of blacklist of medical conditions or medical websites and forums? Does anyone who went to the meeting know if that issue was dealt with or explained further in the Q & A session?
