A very warm welcome to Cancer Chat Welshy1992, although I'm very sorry to hear about your father's diagnosis. This must be a very difficult time for you and your family.
You can find out more about treatment for advanced oesophageal cancer on our website but if you'd like to discuss your father's situation with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to answer your questions and address any other concerns you may have at this time.
We do have quite a few members on the forum who are going through this as well, so hopefully some of them will stop by soon to share their stories and advice.
We're here for you Welshy1992 and sending you all our strength and support.
Kind regards,

Hi Welshy. My mum has been diagnosed few months back but we are just at the stage of starting treatment.
First chemo was on Wednesday, next one in October. Then on 10th November it's chemo and radio 5 days a week for 5 weeks. Unfortunately she isn't eligible for the operation
That will consist of Chemo administered a Monday morning, and Mon - Fri at lunchtime it's radio.
Have you got some sort of treatment plan sorted yet?
