First of all, I’m sorry you’re going through such an overwhelming period 🧡 In my experience, the first appointment is often mostly about getting a clearer picture of your symptoms, history, scans, and possible treatment options. It can feel emotionally intense, but for me it also helped things feel a bit more understandable and less frightening. You definitely don’t need to understand or process everything immediately.
