Endoscopy

Hi, just some advice I'm a little worried after I got a phone call today from my local gp asking I'f I could book an appointment as the doctors needs to speak to me about my endoscopy results ( I don't no them) I had it done little under 2 weeks ago! Obviously I think it's in our nature to be always worried I think we would be mad if we weren't. I'm 25 and for last few years i presented myself with a few problems my food would get stuck sometimes so bad I would have to stick my fingers down my throat and force it back up! I'd have severe chest pain almost felt like i was having a heart attack and that always comes and goes and other pain round admomen I always suffer with fatigue bad that I can't keep a job down I always have to go to sleep during the day it's a nightmare anyway I had 8 biopsys taken as they found inflammation and something else I can't remember what they said (no tumors) am I over worrying here on the plus side I'm happy that after a few years off been fob of with acid tablets that never worked that I'm actually getting taken seriously! And help would be appreciated thankyou x
