Without being involved it's difficult to advise on your questions - hopefully your doctor has given you some idea of options and what to potentially expect. Try to find out all the information you need, so that you can aim to process things.
Hopefully you'll get some more replies from others here soon - do keep using this forum as much as is helpful for you, to connect with others and to share experiences and advice. We are always here for support if ever you need it.
