Thank you Sherry! I just saw the GI doctor and he has scheduled, endoscope and colonoscopy on 2/9. Still waiting for the 5Hiaa urine test results. He feels I have all the symptoms of a carcinoid tumor. He states, let's start here and if that doesn't show anything we will go further with testing. I'm thankful this doctor is taking my symptoms more serious than my Oncologist! He was very impressed with my Cardiologist who has gone beyond her specialty. Fingers crossed all goes well. And yes, I do have medication for nausea from the Oncologist when I was on Imbruvica. Will keep informed on results.

Hi there-

I am so glad to hear that your GI doctor is listening to your concerns and is being proactive. I am sorry your Oncologist disappointed you. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as you progress through your various tests. Here if I can help or encourage you in any way.

Special Blessings,
Sherry
