Hi all,

Just been diagnosed with Oesophagal Cancer last week.  Had my CT scan last week and results tomorrow I think . Fingers crossedFingers crossed

My daughter had Leukaemia last year, so we're not strangers to cancer, but this one is new to me (she's in remission now). 

Once the CT results come through, then we (I) will have a bit more idea of what's next.. 

Feeling fine on the whole, but getting fed up with meal replacement shakes.  Managing to swallow soups etc too, with a bit of force from water pushing it down. Then regurgitating the leftover water stuck in my 'pipe'.  A little phlegmy and up in the night to get rid of it too.  Lost a good few Kgs - that was needed, but not in this manner ! Wink

Attempting to keep weight and muscle up, but it's hard to eat/drink enough at the moment.. 

Anyway... Hello all.
