Hi about 3 years ogo my wife had colorectal cancer:eek:, she has know been given the all clear.:D
Today i read in the paper that cancer patients should get free prescipitions.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/6106728/Two-thirds-of-cancer-patients-still-paying-for-prescriptions.html
It says on the goverment website that All cancer patients are entitled to apply for a 5-year exemption certificate.

My question is it know too late to apply.

It depends on your local PCT when they decided to introduce the exemption, check with them.0
