Hi, I had oesophageal cancer and operation in 2023 ! It is a worrying time but I was discharged with a feeding tube inserted and was able to use that at night to top up etc ! When you first come home I found I could eat very little without feeling full so little and often. The dietitian will give advice on what you can eat but very soft diet to start with I just mashed everything with a fork and just spent longer eating ! It does improve slowly with time 

Many thanks for the info. I hope you are much better now. Can you eat a little solid food now,

Hi yes I eat well now but it is a journey. It takes a while to discover what foods you can and can’t eat without upsetting or overloading your system, I found some foods I really enjoyed now upset me so avoid them now but it’s trial and error still eat small meals try the opa.org.uk for other food ideas and other useful ideas

Thanks again  Very kind of you  My husband is now covered in tubes and getting little sleep in hospital
