I agree with Kerri. Why wait for a few weeks. Push to get going NOW. OC travels very fast and if you are in the early stages, you want to stay that way. It took quite awhile for us to get going and it had spread to many lymph nodes. DON'T wait if you can help it. Also, hopefully you are seeing someone that has experience with OC.
This is a great place to be with tons of support. We have all been through one phase or another so you're in good hands!!
Keep in touch!!
