hugs heading your way @Bean73 this is the best place to come to for help. My GP was on the ball as well with getting me in quickly I went through the local cancer clinic saw the surgeon in her room after my clinic appointment with oncology. Fortunately the breast surgeon operated public as well as private and I went through the public system for everything but her appointments. Hardest part for me was the loss of income. I was only casually employed at the time so super got hacked quite heavily. Going private or public is purely your choice. And also what you can afford to do. I did find I needed someone with me at my appointments the information overload was amazing and still is. I caught on quickly to having a second set of ears that took the notes and always had a list of my concerns at the ready. Telling family is the hardest part. My aging father didn’t take it too well. Took my sister-in-law and brother with me for that one. You do find out who your friends are throughout this the People on this site feel like real friends those trusted ones that you can tell anything to without fear of feeling silly or stupid, even though I’ve never met any of them in person.
