@so1frustrated I hope you are feeling a bit of relief, knowing things have ramped up and you are getting help. Many will tell you we are handed only what we can handle. Take time to have a cup of tea. Write out questions [like, "why did this take so long to do more diagnostic testing?"], concerns, etc. Do you have friends or family nearby, to turn to for support? Knowing you will be hearing a lot of new terms and thoughts, will they allow you a second person with you to also hear and take notes, or perhaps record the appointment?
Remember we are here for you, and will support you however we may be able to.

Thank you, yes, my boyfriend's daugher-in-law is going with me tomorrow and already is starting a list of questions, and had me tell my daughter to call her if she wanted something asked or clarified. She and my daughter, who is coming on Sunday, will be going with us on Monday for the surgery as well as Emily. My boyfriend is with me on all this but is hesitant to help with understanding as he has some problems himself due to severe accident in past and sometimes loses track of conversations. He was/is will to go in, but feels better that his daughter-in-law is going.
