just thing of one thing: what do you want to learn from your doc during your appt? This will guide the questions you ask... |
Gahhhh I'm not big on preparation for these things. I don't do much when I am under anticipation and nervousness. I'm more about...put my shoes on, walk in with my hands in my pocket and just getting it over with. I have some basic things I'l remember to ask and yes.... the continence thing... If I can do something now that will resist "that" I will be sure to do it.
I'll bring a small notebook with me, but mostly my cousin will do the writing...I'll be all nervous and shaky to do that so she won't mind.
I guess my biggest worry(always has to be one) is really bad news.... I mean what if he says it's bad?... What if he says don't even think about remissions or recovery...... I do know they probably won't be able to tell right now, but you know what?....I don't want to know.
Thanks kindly to you all. You have made me a little less nervous and tomorrow I'll be getting this over with. It is what it is and I will do it like all of you do and I am glad you all are here to support. I hope as we become better friends that I get a chance to meet some of you in real life.
Love.
