Hi
I don't have any known family genetic factors, but I did get esophageal cancer diagnosis after endoscopy found cancerous tumor in my lower esophagus that was causing me to cough and spitup a lot of flem. I ended up having 28 days of chemo and radiation which completely eliminated the cancer with no surgery. I did have feeding tube for a while during it all. The good news is that is that it is treatable. I'd be happy to answer questions about it?

Hi, what stage was your cancer? My husband has stage 4 esophageal cancer and it has metastised to his stomach. Oncologist said not alot of celks in stomach but more than they like yo see. He has only had 2 chemo treatments so far. I guess I'm just looking for hope in this group.
