Can't get my head around this I feel numb.
Hi and welcome to the Online Community, although I am sorry to see you finding us and so sorry to hear about your diagnosis.
A cancer diagnosis can indeed bring a lot of confusion, stress and many many questions but I found talking with people who are on the same type of journey can help a lot so can I direct you to our very supportive Bladder cancer group
Posting in this group will open up your concerns to a wider group of people who know exactly what you are having to deal with at the moment.
Follow the link I've created, join the group, then hit ‘start a discussion’ and you are ready to go.
You could then copy and paste the information from this first post into your new discussion or you can also join in with existing ‘discussions’ by clicking on 'reply'.
Can I also highly recommend our various Macmillan Support Line Services - you can call them free on 0808 808 00 00 This service covers Emotional Support, Practical Information. Clinical Information, Financial Support and Work Guidance mostly open 9.00 to 5.00 but check the link but you may find the service very busy at the moment.
Our Online Information and Support Section is a good place to find information covering cancer diagnosis, treatments and pages covering most types of cancers.

All the very best.
