Hi,
I am new to the site and wondered if anyone could offer me some advice please? My mum and I have recently been to the Memory Clinic, had a CT scan and follow-up appointment at the Memory Clinic. Follow-up appointment required further analysis from senior doctor before making a diagnosis. As per my mum's request, I have received the phone call with the news of her diagnosis. I obviously want to share this news with her immediately but she is to see her GP later on regarding her general health and well-being. Is it wise to break this news to her before she goes and risk upsetting her etc or is it best to do this at another time so that she can then make a further appointment with her GP to discuss further. Thank you.
