Had breast cancer in 2016 and after chemo and radiotherapy was put onto Tamoxifen. Recently been getting a lot of issues with bloating, pain in my pelvis, slight spotting (I'm 58). I mentioned the spotting when I went for my smear test recently and thought nothing more of it. Smear test came back clear. I had cause to go the GP a week ago due to a different health issue and the GP started asking me further questions and referred me to the Gynae Oncologist within the two weeks window. I wasn't worried about it but have been to the appointment today, a vaginal ultrasound was carried out which was quite painful on my left side. I was told that the consultant would review the scans and be in touch but that my endometrium had thickened and this was probably due to the Tamoxifen. I was told that I may or may not need a follow up appointment but upon leaving the room I was taken to the reception desk where my new file was handed over. The receptionist read it, said "Oh" then proceeded to give me a pamphlet on a hysteroscopy, told me that they will be in touch and stand by my phone and to bring someone to the appointment. Am I beginning to freak out over nothing or should I be worried?
