@BroniD @Sister also gave good advice about taking someone with you as the shock of diagnosis and whirlwind pace makes it hard to retain things. The BCNA kit I mentioned has within it question s that you might like to ask medical staff which I found useful as part of the time I was quite numb. It’s also an excellent idea to keep a diary of information/ events/ etc which you also get in the BCNA kit or just purchase one as you will be overwhelmed with all sorts of information
