Hi I'm new to the forum

[AJ52]

Just been diagnosed with FTD, by CT.
I am in my 70s and am still a bit shell shocked after looking at the NHS information.
The CT scan took ages to come back and think it got overlooked until I went to my surgery to ask if it had come back.
I will go back for a deeper consultation next week.
If anyone has any advice I would be very grateful.
Thank you
