Hello Everyone,
I had a esophagectomy on 4-19 and the the biopsy revealed that the EC was contained to the first and second layers of the esophagus.
My surgeon took a aggressive sample of the surrounding lymph nodes and tissue and found I didn't need chemo or radiation.I'm a very lucky man.I just want everyone to know how thankful I am for this forum. Phil
