All the best, @spinox - feel free to tell us your story so far. xx
See if you can take a trusted friend/family member with you to the meetings as it can be difficult to remember everything that is said at the time. I also recorded mine on my phone (with the surgeon's permission) so I could go over it again, at home, if I needed to.
And stay away from 'Dr Google' as the info there is often quite outdated and not relative to your own diagnosis!
Also, check out this post for lots of 'general' info on the forum that you may like to look at too! (Even some funny bits, as we all need a laugh xx) You can show off your garden, your fur-kids, your art & craft ..... or start a new thread, with your favourite hobby! ;)
At the bottom of the post are some Tick Sheet PDFs that you can print off & fill in, to follow your physical and mental health .... that you can take along with you & show your team, if you need xx
