Hi! Could you describe your symptoms for carcinoid cancer in your upper GI tract?

@angiev18 There are generally no symptoms for carcinoid cancer in the early stages (as mine were). Carcinoid cancer is usually found when doctors are looking for something else. Mine was discovered through an upper endoscopy.

If you are interested in learning more about carcinoid cancer, here is the Carcinoid Cancer Foundation website where you can learn more, https://www.carcinoid.org/.

I look forward to hearing about your experience at Mayo.
