Glad you are able to commit that amount of time - especially so far. You will feel SO much better when you have a treatment plan worked out and loads of questions answered. It really is a huge relief to get to that stage because from that point on, your only 'job' is to show up and breathe and let them do what they are trained to do. Felt like a huge load was lifted off my shoulders when I knew all the decisions had been made and it was just go time.
