Contact & Support
You've been diagnosed with a long term illness. On top of your
normal, probably busy life, you are now coming to terms with a
diagnosis, learning about an illness, managing the symptoms, making
decisions about treatment and perhaps coping with any side effects.
All of which raise a number of concerns and questions that you
can't always answer.
They can however, be answered and discussed with friendly,
knowledgeable, non-judgemental and sympathetic people. People that
take the weight off your shoulders, and provide strength on those
days that you just can't find it.
They could be friends and family, they could be people who also
have Hepatitis C, they could be doctors or nurses, alternative
therapists or trained counsellors. It doesn't matter who they are,
as long as they are there for you.
Scotland provides one of the best support networks in the world
for Hepatitis C positive people. You can get in touch with them
right here.
