Thanks everyone for your comments. I guess I will get a better handle
when I can think of one. Lots of good advice to read over again. I
see my general practioner today for the first time in 4 years which will
be nice. The specialists have booked me for lots of tests, bone marrow
etc.

I read in a book that one should tell people like in an email at work so
people who know something or suspect something don't start talking and
everybody coming up to you and asking how long do you have to live, etc.

So the email would be something like:

I have just been diagnosed with x. If you see me leaving work early or
arriving late, it is not because I have slept in or I am sneaking out
early, it will be because I have come from or are going for testing or
treatments.

Any thoughts on this? Good idea? Bad idea?

Thanks for being there.
