Hi there, I'm after some advice regarding my dad. Over the last few weeks he keeps regurgitating his food. Not everything but mainly things like meat and sauces seem to make it worse. He has been a heavy drinker for years however stopped in August and has a long history of reflux. Hes not loosing weight. His doctor has referred him for an urgent endoscopy and I'm so worried it could be cancer. Can anyone offer any advice? Does it sound like it could be? Thank you.
