I am so very happy that you got an appointment. Now - make sure you are clear with them about what is going on. No "brave face" - make sure they understand and do not be satisfied with being placated. There is a reason for the pain - their job is to find it. Your job is to describe it as well as you can.
We're here for you and will be waiting to hear how the appointment went. Great big hug here for you (and I don't mind being a bit soggy ((((((((PATTY)))))))))
