Good evening all,
Around 4 weeks ago I suggested my Mom went to the Dr's as she had acid indigestion that wouldn't go. She went, they sent her for an endoscopy 2 days later as a precaution only to be told it was probably oesophagus cancer.
CT scan was 5 days later and then the MD meeting 2 weeks after that (17th July). We were told the staging of T3N1M0 which was a relief as it hadn't spread. The plan is 2 x cycles of Chemo followed by operation and then more chemo.
PET scan is tomorrow, fortunately my Mom (and step Dad) is retired I am a teacher so we can all go together.
Oncologist is next Monday, 29th, the fingers crossed we could have a round of chemo in the bag before I return to school!
I am after any advice re chemo, my Mom is a fit 70 year old, she goes to pilates and has the support of a lot of family and friends (as do I). She has been eating and has managed to add a couple of ounces here and there.
Other than that I guess I am telling a group of people who know what's going on...
Best wishes on your own journeys x
