Afternoon,
My dad has oesophageal cancer and had radiotherapy in June 2024, his swallowing returned to normal and he was flying. In September we were told the primary tumour had gone from his oesophagus but it was lighting up in 1 lymph node. They planned on doing surgery to remove the nymph node, however 3 weeks later they apologised and told us that the oesophageal tumour was actually still there. My dad was offered surgery to remove his oesophagus but he has refused and will start Pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) on Wednesday. I was wondering if anybody has any experience of Pembrolizumab xx
