And maybe you will get a surprise and it will NOT be what you expect, or it will be something positive.

Try to approach the meeting with a positive frame of mind.....

RM   yeah i wish i could. I will say i dont go in all guns blazing , but i do wish doctors would shut up for 5 mins and LISTEN , its not too much to ask ! I never even raise my voice , i dont swear but i do like to give the doctors the facts as they were given to me. I think he should know what the other doctor said to me and exactly the words he used , but if im believed or not is another thing . To be honest i just want to go in , i just want to go in the office , set a date about getting the dam tube out and getting from the PERSON WHO KNOWS the facts about how it is done. I say this because up to now ive had 4 different lots of information about this. Do you know im so bloody weary from all this !

KS, before you go in on Tuesday to see the Doc , write every thing down that happened, like who said what. Write questions down you want to know answers to, go in prepared and take no prisoners.

Like RichardMEL I too hope that the meeting is not what you expect and instead something more positive.  Rather than have a conversation about what happened - or even mention it at all - could you write a letter and make it more formal?  Try sending it to PALs as well, just for their information?  Hope all goes well on Tuesday ...
