So sorry to see that you've joined our exclusive club @Siewli xx.
If you add your town/city to your profile (click on your name & then click on 'profile' on the left) we may have members in your area who can help you with existing services in the area ... and maybe even arrange a meet & greet!
I hope all went well with your appointment with the surgeon today - I hope you were able to take someone with you for support if you could .... and considered recording the appointment on your phone, as it is easy to miss bits at the time.
I can't help you with the itch - but make sure you ask the surgeon about it .... start writing down your questions today (do 2 copies - one for the surgeon as well, so he can tick them off too, as you raise them. It is easy to forget to mention some otherwise, even if written down!)
Feel free to jump onto the Newly Diagnosed and tell us your story so far xx. Then you can follow up there with how your various appts go afterwards.

When you have 5 spare mins, feel free to jump onto this thread & read up on some other areas of the forum - down the bottom are links to questions to ask your specialists & what to take to hospital with you .... https://onlinenetwork.bcna.org.au/discussion/23477/a-big-welcome-to-all-our-new-members#latest
Stay away from Dr Google, take lots of deep breaths, and try not to get ahead of yourself ... just take one day at a time. xx
take care & all the best xx
