Using Helplines

veriterc

Sometimes one needs more general information than we are given on Scope's excellent information line.  This is when I turn to the Patients' Association.  You used to have to pay to belong, but now it's free, and might be useful to other Scope members wanting general help.  More information on https://aftercancers.com/lets-get-some-heavy-weight-campaigning-on-behalf-of-cancer-survivors/  - it's not just for cancer - the Association is for everyone especially if you need information about general health and social care problems, not just those covered by Scope.

Strangely I haven't always found helplines that helpful.
One suggested I join a forum to see how others coped!
