    Hi @jaggzy61 Welcome to the Community. It can be quite difficult coming to terms with a new diagnoses. How are you coping? Your GP should be able to give you any advice you need int managing your condition. Take care.

    Hello @jaggzy61

    Welcome to the community! :) 

    Just to let you know, I popped your post into our Physical and Neurological impairments section of the forum, to see if others can help. As Beaver said, your GP (or specialist) would be the best person to talk to in regards to the medical side. I hope the community will be able to help support you and you can make new friends here :)
