New diagnosis

Couldn't agree more ladies. The loss of control is a real challenge. I think like most women we are used to be the ones that make everything happen when we need it at home and with our families. Everyone relies on us being in control and suddenly we find ourselves in a position where we have to rely on others and hand over control to people we barely know. It's difficult but we need to remember that we can choose to hand over control to our medical team who are experts and know what they're doing. If I start to feel like a bystander with no input, I ask more questions and make sure I'm at least in control of keeping up to date. I then get copies of all my info and results and keep them in a folder which I can then take with me to appointments if needed or just revisit if I need clarification. Good luck with your treatment. I hope you get a clearer picture of your situation and treatment soon.
