Thank you!
These links are going to be super helpful. There is such support in talking on here to these who know. I feel huge relief having had this morning first meeting with the surgeon and team. Now I have information over imagination which is much better! x

That's terrific RSVP that you are feeling happier after seeing your surgeon xx
I like your term 'Information over Imagination' - that is a GREAT way of describing it - as this diagnosis mucks with your BRAIN even more than your BODY! Knowledge is power!
I like that you are having an MRI too - they weren't 'routine' back when I had mine - and I've still not had one! grrr (Only a specialist/surgeon can order one for you apparently - without paying a huge fee!) I reckon EVERYONE with a cancer diagnosis should have one straight up - as any future ones, then has something to compare to!
You'll feel so much better once you have your 'game plan' and surgery date .....
take care & all the best for the MRI & scan xx
