Esophageal Cancer: Symptoms and Treatments

If you are reading this I pray you are healed and blessed 🤍in Jesus name amen 🙏🏽

I’m a 40 year old female who has been diagnosed with stage 4 esophaguses cancer metastasized to my liver and am starting a very aggressive chemotherapy. I’ve been telling my doctor for 6 years I have acid and was told to take over the counter antacids. I wish she listened and sent me for an endoscopy sooner. I’m terrified x

This man is a very gifted surgeon. He repaired my incisional hernia with a mesh in October of 2016 and I highly recommend him.

The presumption of this video is that you already have esophageal cancer. Don't let it get to that point. Broadly speaking, before there is esophageal cancer, there is Barret's Esophagus, which is not cancerous. Before BE, there are abnormalities of the esophagus. If you have GERD and are experiencing anomalies of your throat, get scoped by an ENT. My manifestation was an inability to hit upper notes while singing Christmas carols. Better safe than sorry.

When they say it happens in older ppl NOT THATS WHY A LOT YOUNGER PPL DIE MISDIAGNOSED

My sister's friend lost her 32 year old daughter to this. The daughter had a husband, two little children and a newborn. She told her Dr. for months of her pregnancy that she had trouble swallowing. He just dismissed her because she was pregnant and he said it was the pregnancy. When the baby was only about a week old. They finally listened to her. They found out that she had esophageal cancer. She was only diagnosed 3 months when she started hemorrhaging one night and she passed away that night at the hospital. It was/is beyond sad.

im tired of doctors saying everything is anxiety or stress, its actually ridiculous

God bless you. I hope you're okay.💗🙏

I've had acid reflux for about 10 years on and off. The doctors have always given me antacids to take however these haven't ever worked on me. 10 years pass and I'm still getting the usual on and off acid to the point where I need to use extra pillows in bed as I manage better with elevation in my upper torso. I went to the doctors today to let them do some physical checks they said I'll give you 6 months prescription of omeprazole.. I told them that all the antacids don't work. They ignored me once again so I ripped up my prescription. I also mentioned to my doctor that I'm getting pain in my lower esophagus while eating my first meal of each day and I'm starting to feel neck/throat pain regularly. Again my words meant nothing. I asked for an internal examination through the mouth but she said I will need to wait 72 weeks just to be added to the list and they may not do the examination even after that time. I've being doing my own research which btw is a lot more helpful the the doctors through the NHS. Can anyone give me any advice and any success stories to cure this condition would be greatly appreciated.

How are you feeling now?

I'm 20 years old, and i have never smoked or drinked in my 20 years of living and i've been having a discomfort in my upper abdomen and my chest lately, it feels like something is stuck in my stomach or at the end of my esophagus, maybe acid or maybe gas i don't know, i've also been burping a lot. This has been happening to me for a couple days now, i don't have trouble swallowing nor i have food coming back up, i simply feel a discomfort of being full or something stuck. I've been extremely paranoid lately also because i suffer from anxiety especially when it comes to my health i just start panicking! I pray to god this is just an indigestion or something like that. I'm probably going to see a doctor in the next few days to make sure what this is, and i pray for every one going through this! March, 25th 2021
