How long ago was your surgery @MJ04? You should really be reviewed by your oncologist at least yearly & you should be able to book an appointment earlier if you have specific concerns, which it sounds like you do. I see my surgeon, Onc and Rad Onc at@MJ04 t once a year - usually for 5 years.
I actually didn't get on that well with my original Onc, so changed and am really pleased I did, as my current Onc is very supportive and sympathetic to my side effects. I'm now onto my 3rd lot of AIs due to nasty side effects (starting off with Letrozole, then Exemestane and now Arimidex which is a MUCH better for me.) I have found that the CBD oil has 'taken the edge' off the general aches & pains, so not aware of it 24/7 like before (tho not 100%) and am no longer taking anti inflammatories or pain killers, which is good.
Make sure you don't mix the temazapan and the phenergan, as both have 'sleep' properties ...
Take care xx
