I'm really sorry about your diagnosis Sam but fingers crossed the radiotherapy and chemotherapy can help slow things down. Have you been able to discuss your concerns about the side effects you could get from the chemo with your medical team? Do have a chat with them about this when you can as they will be able to give you all the information you need to help you make your decision about whether to go ahead with it or not. And as I mentioned on your other post our cancer nurses are just a phone call away and will be happy to talk this through with you as well.

Do you have a date for when the stent is going to be fitted? I hope you don't have to wait too long and that it helps making swallowing liquids much easier for you.

Let us know how you get on with the stent and the radiotherapy when the time comes Sam. We'll be thinking of you.

Kind Regards,
