Hi Normajean,

A very warm welcome to our forum.

I am not a doctor, but I know from personal experience that It does take some of us a long time to overcome the fatigue and some of us never do. Are you on any medication to thin your blood? This can cause bruises all over the body without any pressure.

Instead of worrying about the pain you have when trying to swallow, please see your GP urgently. If you tell the receptionists why you need an appointment, they will probably arrange a telephone consultation first of all, then your GP should see you and arrange referral if necessary.  If this is a return of your cancer, the sooner you get it seen to the better the outcome is likely to be. In the meantime, try not to panic until you know whether or not there is any need to worry.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you. I sincerely hope that all turns out well for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
