Sorry to see you here @maggiew - but you've come to the right place for support & backup. The waiting between appointments can be 'the pits' - so try & keep busy doing the stuff you love to help pass the time.
Yep, having someone with you at your appointments will help big time - my sister in law came with me & she was terrific, asking questions on my behalf that I hadn't even thought of! .... or even recording it on your phone as well, to listen to again afterwards.
Where abouts are you based (major city or are you rural?) Some others who live nearby may be able to connect you with services that are available to that area, to assist you.
All the best with your appointment on Tues - we'll be thinking of you. xx
