Hello I have been diagnosed with a rare from of cancer Cholangiocarcinoma which is incurable i am having palliative chemotherapy for it is anyone else in my situation  ?

  • Hello Paindarr

    I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma, also known as bile duct cancer. It's understandable that this might be a difficult time for you as you're going through treatment and coming to terms with this news. 

    We have had a few people post about cholangiocarcinoma across the forum. You can read some of those posts by using the forum search function at the top of the page to look for the terms "cholangiocarcinoma" or "bile duct cancer". The British Liver Trust also has a number of patient support services worth looking at.  Hopefully, you will be able to connect with others who are living with this diagnosis. 

    If it would help to talk with one of our nurses at any point, you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

    Sending my best wishes,
