Hi Old duck, and welcome to the network, you'll find lots of support and advice from all the members here. I have certainly learned heaps and felt very supported by others during the uncertain times. I hope that your appointment goes well for you on Monday. I have an appointment with a radiation oncologist on Monday yo find out about my radiotherapy treatment. Just take it 1 appointment at a time and you'll manage things more calmly. I always take a notepad with me with all my questions, in case I become overwhelmed. You can write down dr and nurse advice, so that you can refer to it later. Sending you a cuddle, Tracey B ??????
