I haven’t come across a separate support group yet. I’m not too sure whether I would benefit from one. The problem with the NHS is that it tends to work in silos, sometimes I think it would be so much better for me to go to one discipline. I have found the ICUSteps/ critical care support network provide much of the support I need. The common factor being icu and then there are all the consequences of that stay no matter the reason for the stay in the first place. After 20 months my neuropathy is at the bottom of my list of issues. I don’t have pain issues just no feeling 😀
