AM007 - Any information you can get will help you feel better and more in control so you can fight whatever comes along. Have you checked with your doctor about the tingling in your tongue? When you meet with your team, or appointment, it would really help if you did have someone go with you to absorb all the information they throw at you. When you are trying to think of everything, it's easy to miss a point. When my son had his initial appointments, there were three of us there with him and I remember one time, each of us (4) remembered something different about a particular point! Not only that, the scary stuff is a lot easier to take when it can be diffused among more than one person.
