I am having a fear of cancer and I like to ask

These are much better questions for your physician. I am 46, was diagnosed at 45 after an episode of vomiting blood. After surgery, chemo and radiation, I am now cancer free. From all that I have read - gastric cancers occur more often in men over fifty than any other demographic group. For esophageal cancer questions go to www.eccafe from there you will find links to a list serve esophageal group (of 1200 participants) and a yahoo chat group that meets twice a week.0

hi bke! my dad was also diagnosed with stomach cancer (stage two) 3 yrs. ago. he to had surgery,chemo.,and radiation.his cancer had not spread to lymph nodes but just last week on a routine 6 month ct scan they noticed a "thickening of the stomach" and two small masses outside stomach wall.you said you were cancer free--that is wonderful but i would like to know your story if possible--i guess i wanted to pretend like my dads cancer neverhappened but now this news. i know that once you have cancer you always have it and worry about it returning.i would love to know anything that you are doing to prevent a recurrence and do you have routine ct scans?bke said:These are much better questions for your physician.
