Of course you are shocked by it- anyone would be. I can see why people have been suggesting ways of coping, which may well be useful later on.
But just at the moment you need to go thru the trauma of the news you were given. So insensitively too(doctors!! Sorry Dr B- its the ones outside mental health who are often not the best on the communication skills)
I dont know if you have a counsellor or anything to share your reaction with. Hope so. There may be some sort of relevant support group for/with other people who have more understanding of what its like to face this news.
There, I'm falling into the trap of making suggestions of options as well. You need to do, or not do, whatever feels right for you at the moment. Which may be being justifiably upset.
Take care.
