Health anxiety waiting for endoscopy biopsy results

I had an endoscopy last week due to ongoing reflux issues etc. Nothing sinister seen but told I had gastritis and a hiatal hernia. They took some biopsies as I've been anemic for quite a while. I've phoned today and they've said results are back but they can't disclose them on the phone and I have to wait for a clinical letter. I am going out of my mind with worry, please does anyone have any experience of this and what could possibly have flagged up on a biopsy? I am a single mother of two young boys and I am worried sick.

Thank you.

I suspect the biopsies will show exactly what theyve told you - gastritis. If there was anything nasty they would have called you into the hospital for a face to face appointment.
