It has been a huge joint effort to get to this point: the first fully decentralised non pharmacological clinical trial in #PCD. Thanks to the amazing team Aparito (particularly Elisa Ferrer Mallol & Dr Elin Haf Davies) for believing in us. If you have PCD check it out! 👇#research

It's been a rough few months, with nearly 4 weeks of hospital admissions since end of Jan. Here's me getting my last dose last night before heading home! I can't thank the amazing staff at Royal Brompton and Harefield enough. Also loving my new accessible Porto&bello hoodie! #PCD #SpecialistCare

Medmin: My hospital discharge summary was inaccurate but the doc said he was new and didn't know how to make edits, so couldn't change it. This was sent to my GP surgery who have now taken 2 of my essential meds off my repeat, and are refusing to put them back on. Ffs 🤯 #PCD

🫁The thing with #PCD is that you can do everything right & it's still not enough. I tell this to parents and fellow PCDers all the time, & yet a phone call from hospital still has me asking what I could have done differently. Channeling sad dog vibes...

People with PCD: please fill out this survey! Great to have an opportunity to shape the future of research in PCD and hope it leads to new avenues being explored (spoiler alert: it includes gastroenterology, which people often ask @pcdsupportuk about!) #pcd #participatoryresearch
