Hi, I'm new to this site and have had this cancer since diagnosed in Feb. of 2007
Because I also suffer from severe COPD the decision was to do Radiation and Chemo
not surgery. Since finishing the Radiation I have had to go back several times for dialation because apparently the scar tissue continues to expand. Now they are talking
about a stent. Does anyone have any 1st hand experience and info that I could rely on.
