It is scary. I was having trouble swallowing and during endoscopy they found a large tumor in lower esophagus.
I ended up having chemo and radiation and it got rid of the tumor and cancer. The tumor shrunk 40% after 3 treatments. My doc did not want to do surgery. Do you know yet what your doc recommends?

My husband had a CT scan last week and his primary care doc is making an appointment with an oncologist this week to go over the results. We’re very nervous now waiting; I’m thinking they will let us know what stage this is at and then they’ll tell him what he needs to do next. I’ve been praying for the best possible results and hoping they can get him on a treatment plan that works. I really appreciate everyone here offering their experiences as it feels overwhelming at times.
