Official now

So apparently the tumour in my esophagus is cancer and a rare form at that. I have laparoscopy and peg going in next Thursday as well as endoscopic ultrasound and more biopsies. Then I will meet oncologist and they will sort intensive chemo and radiotherapy. Hopefully 3 months after that I will have surgery. So far it hasn't spread to liver brain etc

    P.s trust you to start a new post I've been checking the old ones,. 

  • I actually feel a little relief that I know what it is and we have some of the plan. One step at a time. Get to laparoscopy appointment then think about the rest. Telling my family was difficult. I cried then. But I'm concentrating on the fact that the consultant said he is going for cure. I'm holding on to that. Thanks for checking. I'm glad I have support on here. It means a lot xxx

  • Hi shaky remember we're here for, i thought the worst when you took a long time getting back to let us all know. Deep breath and relax, trouble is it's waiting again, isn't it can you keep yourself busy to pass time,.

  • I'm sure my kids will help me stay busy. I'm ok. I would've been on sooner but had a couple friends round and then I had to speak to family. Sorry I worried you xxx

  • Hi shaky 

    Thats ok as long as you are. Hopefully others will join you soon to help or just to chat after all that's what women does best. God bless.
