Hi, 

New to forum stuff like this. 

My dad was diagnosed yesterday with esophageal cancer. Had trouble swallowing but didn't think too much of it, went for a scope and found ulcers, which they then took a biopsy. From there pathology then came back and said there is cancer cells. 

Referred for CT scan next week, which I am aware takes time for the results etc. 

Wondering if anyone else had similar experiences with this and what the outcome has been. My dad seems upbeat as they mentioned they did not see a tumour and were surprised with the findings but the more I read, the more cloudy the view becomes as I've read similar with short lived outcomes. 

Thanks for any help / pointers 

Brian
