Hi @Heth7,
It is really tough going in the first couple of weeks. I always recommend you get a folder that you can take to all your appointments--get copies of all your results, the names of your doctors and contact numbers. It's very easy to lose track of who is who and what they have told you.
Things do get a little easier when you start to learn the language and figure out who everybody is and what they are talking about.
I'm sure one of the ladies with better skills than I will pop up a link to the 'My Journey' resources, which may be helpful. If you haven't already connected with a breast care nurse, that is a really good idea too. They are a wealth of knowledge and can help you navigate.
It's all one step forward, two back then hurry up and wait which can be both frustrating and confusing. This is a good place to ask questions when you need advice on specific things. We've all been where you are and know how ratty it can make you feel. Good luck. Marg
