Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1This trial is comparing brief dietary advice versus individually tailored dietary advice for people with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, or spondyloarthritis — given my specific diagnosis, does my doctor think one of those two approaches would be more appropriate for me, or is there a standard-of-care option I should try first?
2The trial is no longer actively recruiting, so I can't join it — but since it's still running, does my doctor know if its early findings or any published results could still help guide the dietary advice they give me to manage my LDL cholesterol?
3Since this is a Phase N/A study focused on dietary counseling rather than a drug, what does my doctor think about the safety profile of trying dietary changes to lower my LDL, and are there any risks specific to my inflammatory joint condition I should be aware of?
4Managing LDL cholesterol seems to be a key concern in inflammatory joint disease — can my doctor explain why cardiovascular risk is elevated in conditions like mine, and how urgently should I be addressing my cholesterol alongside my joint disease treatment?
5Are there registered dietitians or other specialists at my care center who already provide the kind of individually tailored dietary advice this trial is studying, so I could potentially benefit from that approach outside of the trial itself?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
