  • Hello roccorich

    I'm sorry that you didn't have a response before your treatment. I hope that things have gone smoothly today and that you're feeling less nervous at this point. 

    If there's anything you'd ever like to talk through with one of our nurses you're always welcome to give them a call for some advice and support. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I send our best wishes for your continued recovery.
