Just diagnosed with PKD

I’ve just had my first diagnosis and waiting to get results on the stage it’s at and whether my liver and pancreas are effected. All a bit overwhelming. Does anyone have any recommendations of good sources I can read up on it? Thanks

Just the internet in general, I've known about mine for 32 years. Get as many tests done as they will give you.
