Hi Scott,

Welcome to the Forum. Glad You are here but sorry that You need to be. If You could give us some more information about what Your diagnosis and treatments are, then You will get some specific answers to Your questions. It is certainly most natural to be scared. This beast is a scarey disease. Do all You can to keep positive thoughts going. I send all of the positive vibes that I can Your way.

Peace
Jack
