Thank you. I'm an esophgel cancer survivor that was given 6 months to live. That was February 23 2016. The same surgery and challenges you had, I had and still have. "By His Stripes, I Am Healed." Thank you for sharing your story.
Hello..my husband was diagnosed with this cancer just a week ago..symptoms are difficulty in eating..about to do chemo rad in two weeks... did u undergo surgery? Can you tell me how was your battle in dealing with this kind of cancer...are you okay now? Thankyou..
@@carmieingalla6978 Ongoing, but I am positive, luckily I have a great principal at the primary/elementary school I work at. I'm working 2 days a week in the library. 13 months on from surgery, I am eating normal meals but smaller size portions. My endurance and stamina levels are still low - i need a nanna nap in the afternoon. I have stage 4 now. its in my lymph noded but I refuse to let this beast beat me. I was having immunotherapy and it was working well until the cancer mutated and evaded the immunotherapy. Not to worry, they have me on a new treatment and I'm hopeful we can beat this thing atleast subdue or keep it under control.
I am now 2 years post surgery for this cancer,it has been a hard 2 years but now back to exercising daily ,swimming , cycling etc. Life a mostly back to normal for a 70 year old , and every day is a blessing.
Yep, it was caught early so very grateful to all involved who helped me get through the last 2 years, surgeon's, nurses , friends and family etc,life is great .
I have had neither esophageal cancer nor Barrett's. My ENT found that stomach acid was burning my vocal cords, which can advance to Barrett's if left untreated. The reason I scheduled an exam with my ENT is that, while singing along with the radio in the car, I noticed I could not hit my top-most octave. So if you present in this way, have it checked.
