    Yes I was very tired in both November & December and found out I had BC on 1/5. I was very angry at both my poor body and myself for being so tired especially in December when you have so many extra things to do for the Holidays and I had 5 people staying at my house for a week. I was shocked that I had bc but glad that there was a reason for the way I was feeling. I have learned alot and have promised myself that I will never get angry at myself like that again without getting a check-up first. Take care.

    Well, now that you asked: yes, I was pathologically tired! And my BC when discovered, Jan, 2016, was small, 5mm. So?? However, around my definitive dx, I was storming for the "retirement barn" at 60+ years; and working/surviving/longing to leave a toxic academic department. I also had a couple of years of new bosses/daughter marrying (destination wedding...ugh) .... and also around all this had a huge upswing in my IBS symptoms (Irritable bowel not inflammatory). Therefore, I would find it difficult to precisely connect the BC to being so deadly tired. If I were younger and healthier (IOW fewer co-morbs) yes, I might well attribute the connection.

    Ahhh, the myriad mysteries of the body, mind, spirit....
