Hello Paige

I set up a support group for people with Behcet's across Scotland about 18 months ago. We meet 3 or 4 times a year just to chat and support each other. Our next meeting is Friday 28 March at 12.45 pm in the Central Library, Edinburgh. There is only one person in the group from Edinburgh itself. The biggest contingency comes from the West of Scotland but we also have people from Perthshire and the Highlands. You would be most welcome to come along to our meeting and I would welcome help with running the group. My email address is catherineohara34@gmail.com if you would like to get in touch.

Hi Catherine I would love to help as I have recently left university as I became too ill and obviously I can't work at the minute so I'm desperate for something to do I will try and make the next meeting but I rely on my husband for transport and help walking as I recently developed Erythema Nodosum hopefully I'll see you then.
