  • Hi Phil, sorry to hear this.

    Navigating a cancer journey can be such a stressful and challenging time but getting support from people who have walked or are walking the ‘exact same' journey can help a lot.

    The Community is actually divided into dedicated Support Groups (Discussion Rooms) so if it is Bile Duct Cancer can I recommend that you look to join and put up your own post in our dedicated……..

    Bile duct cancer

    …… support group.

    If it turns out to be another cancer type you can have a look through this link Cancer Specific Groups you will find all our dedicated cancer support groups listed.

    The Macmillan Support Line is open between 8am-8pm (timings may differ across services) 7 days a week on 0808 808 00 00…… this service provides cancer information, practical information, emotional support, benefits/financial/work guidance or just a listening ear. Ear 

    Talking to people ‘face to face’ can be very helpful so do check to see if you have any Local Macmillan Support in your area, do also check for a local Maggie's Centre as these folks are amazing.

    Do get back to me if you need further help navigating the community.
