I have that, and starting chemoradiation this week. I anxious, and ready to do all I can. I feel good, eating good. I know side effects may be hard, in the mouth, throat. I have a baking soda, salt, water mix to help with it. How long after treatment, do the check if things have worked?
Thank you.

For me, I had quarterly checkup for 2 years, with a CT scan and endoscopy for the first year. In year 2, I received an endoscopy each quarter and CT scan every 6 months. In year 3 and so far in year 4, I get a CT scan and an endoscopy every 6 months.
