I
had my gastroscopy and a biopsy has been taken and waiting for the
results.After the procedure the Dr said everything looked fine and he
didn't find anything of concern to him ,I had a whole heap of bloods
taken so waiting for the results as well.
Sorry I was rather slack, but you get to the stage of not another problem. now just have to wait for the results.
Thanks again Cheryl xx

Tiredness and lack of energy is common on tamoxifen and I think Christmas can have that effect on anybody but your other symptoms need checking. Best wishes.

I had black stools while on chemo, I spoke to the oncologist who suggested seeing a GP and getting a stool test immediately. I did the test which didn’t show anything and the black stool stopped after that. Definitely get that checked out by a GP while your oncologist is away.
