  • Hi Rosie2008,

    Often the uncertainty and waiting for information is incredibly hard to deal with. It's usually a good idea to avoid looking things up online to do with this, as typically it's only the medical team who can advise and the information found online can often only lead to further worry and uncertainty.

    Some people say that keeping busy helps and trying to find distraction and other things to take your mind off it all.

    I hope you all find out more soon about all this.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
