Scarborough Hospital Rheumatology Patients Support Group
Finally, Ruth Newton tells
me that she will be holding another rheumatology patient support group meeting
on 25th march at Scarborough Hospital Social Club, between 10:00am and
12:00noon. This meeting will focus on Sjögren’s Syndrome, which may be of
interest as I believe a few of you have it as a secondary condition.
All the best,
Richard, Lynne, Jennifer,
Rachel, Sam and Suze
