Well, after the visit to Athens today I am delighted to report that the former is the case and it has only just started to attack the inner wall of the oesophagus and is therefore eminently treatable. Now, thats not to say it is an easy fix nor that I am out of the mire yet but it is a great start to what will hopefully be a full recovery.

 

 

Great news Colin :thumbs:

Firstly I'm sorry to hear about your terrible news.

 

Lastly, I'm happy to hear about your fantastic news.

 

Just spotted this mate. Must have been a proper scare for you and the family. Best of luck with the treatment and get well soon :)

Sorry to hear the news CJ, as others have mentioned, you have caught it early which is a big plus and no doubt you will be back to full health in no time at all. I worked for Cancer Research UK for a number of years and early diagnosis was the biggest factor in full recovery :)

 

Just be positive and I know things will be back to normal in no time at all

I went to Athens today to get an ultrasound endoscopy done to ascertain the depth and spread of the disease. The Doc had explained that ideally we will have caught it early and it wont have breached too deep into the walls of the oesophagus and could be treated by an operation to remove the infected area. The worse case would have been other organs and lymph glands being infected.

I want to thank you all for your messages of support - they really meant a lot to me and my sons. xx

:thumbs: That's great news :) as said, you might not be out of the mire yet but it seems as positive as you could dare hope for.

 

Hope all goes well, keep us updated :)
