Hi everyone
I was diagnosed 7 wks ago with squamous cell carcinoma in my mid oesophagus. Had to have multiple tests still waiting for a plan. Just heard from nurse i will be getting a appointment to see surgeon and to have tests to see if im strong enough for surgery. Also still waiting for a biopsy off my shoulder which has been referred on to haematology. I have pre existing conditions. There primary concern is my pulmonary fibrosis due to scleroderma and lupus. Is anyone suffering with extreme digestive issues. I am finding it very debilitating. Extreme pain and discomfort and vomiting. Not much to come up because can't eat. Symptoms kick off with just a few sips of fluid. Been on omeprazole for 20 yrs.
