Itchy

Guess what I came across at the notice board the other day. Have been so itchy and wanted to post this so much... *sniggering* It's one of those guinea pigs recruitment adverts again. OMG! I'm feeling itchy....

Should I go? Shouldigo shouldigo?

YL might have the possibility of having thalassemia minor.
CH has G6PD deficiency.
KW's aneroxic. KK's anemic.
That leaves me. Alone. From the group of us I mean.
Okay so KW's and KK's are made up. But they don't want to go either way.

Notice the "Subjects will be compensated for their time and inconvenience"? I'll get paid! The last one that we enquired, we were told it's a month's rent. A month's rent! *grinning*

I'm itchy!!!

But I will have to sacrifice the two weekends, supposedly some other wasted weekend socializing with one of them peeps in the MSN list anyways. *LMAO* I hate making decisions... *Blergh*

Oooo. Go go!

Experimental = money? :P

Sounds interesting to be involved in a clinical trial. They pay quite well. Maybe you can try and share the experience in your blog?

I think one month's rent is quite a lot of money. Best to enquire about the pay first. :)

The study coordinator smsed me to ask me to take part. Too bad I can't because I'm alpha-thalassaemic. :(

what disease is that?

Jason said...

Thalassaemia is similar like anemia right?

QR: but the weekends... :( it's experimental, and they say they'll take full responsibilities of our safety...

littledove: it is a LOT of money. 300 bucks!!! :D

zyklon: my gods! they still contact u?!

daohui: which sickness are u referring to? both thalassemia and G6PD deficiency are erm, genetic disease of the blood. RBC membrane become more fragile. aneroxic is a psychiatric problem, patient thinks they're fat and refuse to eat. anemic will be that of people with low red blood cells.

Jason: tak sama lar... thalassemia is thalassemia... anemia is anemia. :P but both are disorder of the blood lar. :P
