[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What on earth?? Of course you can talk to your close friends about this. Lean on them for support. That doesn’t mean you dominate every luncheon with a medical recital. But if you have friends, there have to be a couple of them you can get support from. [/quote] Completely agree. And ask your doctor LOTS of questions. If she seems rushed or annoyed, say, I know you’re busy, but I’m really confused/worried/unsure can I ask a few other questions? Or, “I know you’re used to answering these questions, but this is my first time having this diagnoses so bear with me.” Doctors sometimes forget their bedside manners, a brief reminder can help them.
