So my husband is has just passed the 6 yr past the Ivor Lewis op. He was kicked out of hospital on the start of our covid lock down from Brighton. He has done fabulous but unfortunately now 6 yrs later he has developed malnutrition. He is 50yrs of age now. I Hv still continued to do so much research into this and my concern is….. it is in the top 5 of terminal cancers but my research has shown it’s deteriorated from the after care. After Ivor Lewis they are going to be deficient in certain vitamins. My Husband still continues to lose weight after putting him on a high protein, high fat, high fibre but low sugar diet. He still has not had a face to face consultation with a nutritionist. I believe the fatality of this cancer is due to the aftercare they are not provided with. I’m am doing some deep research into this and would like others input. I Hv currently arranged an appoint with my husbands Gp where I will bringing up a lot of questions.
