Hi and welcome. I think you have a very smart idea about seeing your doctor. Please do follow through with that and make it your first priority. This site has been a huge help to me. It really can provide support and input but we certainly can not and are not allowed to give medical advice so please do seek that out right away. Before, during and after though, please be sure to keep coming back here to read and post. That atleast helps me.
Congratulations on your decision. It is the right one.
Wishing you peace, comfort, and strength.
