Esophagectomy Surgery No Longer an Option -We Are Lost- Help

Thank you so much! It's all so overwhelming. He is hesitant to do more chemo, because they could never get the nausea under control. We have an appointment for Monday with the oncologist to discuss options. It's confusing, since we have been working so hard to get to the point where surgery was scheduled and then to be to be told it was off the table because he wouldn't make it through, was tough. Your post is encouraging.

I also had problems with nausea, but they were able to give me Zofran and also before chemo via port they were able to give me anti nausea medicine via the port. I hope they can do that encourage you to continue chemo. I also was discouraged to hear I was not a good candidate for surgery due to my high blood presure and anti heart fibrulation meds. Can you ask about nausea medication options?
