    Esophageal cancer stage 3 pressing on trachea

    I was diagnosed with EC in upper esphagus pressing on trachea. It is about 3 cms and has spread to 6 lymph nodes. I am starting the chemo and radiation from Monday, April 17th. Will love to hear from any one you has survived or is going through this. Thanks.

    welcome

    Bob1952,

    Welcome to the H&N forum, sorry that you are here, but you are.

    Do you have your plan all worked up?  It sounds like you do.  I wish you the best of luck and every time a side effect comes knocking at your door, do not let them in!  I mean it, they come across like they are your friend, but they are not.

    Start drinking water and plan to get plenty of nourishment.  These are very important.

    Now I must go outside and play.

    See you later,

    Matt

     

    OH, you may want to start a new thread, new guy and all.
