Does any member of our forum know equivalent web site/ forum for my relative just diagnosed with Horton's syndrome - I think GCA is terminology used here in UK - my relative lives in rural France and does not speak English well enough to follow our group.

Grateful for any suggestions,Lois 41428

    I do have a Trustee who lives in France and runs our forum.

    If you send me a PM with your contact details I can pass them on to Christine.

    Mavis,.

    I think it is very unlikely there is a support charity in France - there isn't one in the USA, just several in the UK, all the forums are based there too. As lodger says, there are a few members of the forums who live in France but all native English speakers so probably not a lot of help.
