Tegis Posted August 31, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2012 Got diagnosed with a tumour in my gullet this week. Inoperable because it has spread to my liver. Very rare at the age of 30. Only hope is to put it into remission through chemo otherwise nothing they can do. So a bit of a stressful week!!!!! Thats not a good read. Here's hoping for a succesful chemo. Fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irreverentad Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Cheers chaps. Gone through a lot of horrible things this week, moped a bit but does no good. Gonna be as positive as possible and try to put this as far in remission as possible. Got meeting at Christies next week re chemo and it should start pretty quickly from there. So fingers crossed. This is a disease that is prevalant in 55 + year old smokers. I dont smoke or really drink. Hardest bit is trying to keep the family on an even keel.

Give that shitty disease hell man. Edit; How did you find out by the way? Thanks to everyone for your support. It is really fantastic. How I found out? Well went to a&e through shoulder pain and a little problem swallowing but nothing major. They found it by doing an endoscopy (camera down the throat) and taking biopsies, blood test and a ct scan. Doc pre warned me that it would be bad news the day before the full disclosure for me and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekka Posted September 1, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted September 1, 2012 Irreverentad, keep fighting. My two good friends both suffer from cancer. At first, all seemed to be lost. Mike (my best friend) was diagnosed with testicular cancer before it passed to his blood and to his liver. He too thought that it was inoperable before he put up the fight. He has had intensive chemo at Hammersmith and is now in remission. He is getting stronger by the day and is now a rock to his girlfriend (who sadly still suffers from cancer but things are looking up). He is now getting married next summer to his lovely girlfriend and is slowly starting to enjoy life again. Keep your chin up mate, be positive and above all, fight it. There will be light at the end of the tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
