Hello and  :welcomemm:  Your GP has sent you to the right place, there is a wealth of information on this site plus lots of lovely, helpful, knowledgeable and friendly ladies.  However I think your GP needs to offer you a little more information as well as sending you here.  Anyway, browse round, arm yourself with all the info you can find and then go back to her.
