Esophageal Cancer Signs & Symptoms (& Why They Occur)

[@aglizzy2987]

My older cousin is only 33 and was diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal cancer back in June. Today they told him he only has a few days left and it’s November. He has two young boys and a wife.. this is so sad for my family. 😢 i hate this disease! We need cures!

Definitely worth going to more than one doctor for initial diagnosis not that they're incompetent or anything but some have had more experience with some illnesses than others, there's so much to look for.

[@king-bs3wu]

Thank you so true I might have the samething

[@hillarylooper7982]

Very informative, thank you for the video. My mom died from complications due to gastresophageal cancer 10 years ago. She exhibited the first 2 symptoms, dysphagia and weight loss, but the cancer was found relatively early because she was having her gallbladder removed and the doctor's noticed that something wasn't right. She was diagnosed at 49, almost 50, and passed away 18 months later.

Hello Hillary , I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother was so young. Did your mother start with Gerd or Acid Reflux ( which is the same ) ????? I have GERD and Erosion Esophagus and I am trying my best to found out , if I can avoid *Barrett's Esophagus Disease if I have Erosive Esophagitis?? I really need the true answer to these questions. I had like 5 things going on at the same time, woke up from 4 AM , March 25, 2020. Gall Bladder , Gall Stones, Gastritis , Erosion Esophagus and one other thing. I am still dealing with this Gastritis , Erosion Espohagus. I had my gall bladder and stones taken out.

I can tell you I don’t have esophageal cancer. I do have a problem with my esophagus however. The sphincter leading into my stomach works just fine, however my Esophagus basically has no muscle tone. It’s bad enough that even water can get stuck. I found that out when I had an esophageal manometry done. That procedure sucks. Doctors have no idea why or what is going on with it.

[@zbritishteaman]

hope you figure out what's wrong and get it resolved soon!

[@BlinkOnWheels]

@@zbritishteaman thanks. I’m going to have to be annoying and call the department for the doctors I need because The doctor I used to have is not working with my health insurance anymore. I didn’t find out till I was on the phone on Thursday. I guess my insurance didn’t let me know in an accessible format. I have to tell what’s going on to a new doctor. That stresses me out because I am extra vulnerable. I am blind. I’m guessing the health insurance send a message to my account or something on the website they have or send it in snail mail. They could’ve sent an automated voicemail. If you’re wondering how I am typing, I use speech to text. Apple has something called dictation. Dictation is available for sighted and blind people. Apple has a built-in Accesibility software thing called voiceover. It allows me to use my phone like a sighted person.

I've lived with acid reflux for years, it's under control now but I use to get angry because I'd burb up and it hurt like a sonofabitch. My former spouse had to come with me to the doctor and she told her about it.

[@squishywatchbee3010]

I have almost all of these symptoms D: even the anemia and one other symptom I didn't hear mentioned but I wonder if it is related, chronic hiccups. All of this got so bad the last few weeks. I can't believe how fast it has worsened. I'm not a smoker or drinker but I have bile reflux from having my gallbladder removed, and I have GERD AND I have a hiatal hernia. On top of it all I have an autonomic disorder, which makes my digestion not work properly, as well as many other autonomic stuff. The worse part is feeling like my throat has a whole thanksgiving meal stuck in it, even if I only eat a few bites of food. I'm on the dreaded 3 week wait til I can get into the stomach guy. Gonna be a looooooong 3 weeks. I survived kidney failure, as well as survived a hospitalized version of Delta. I thought I was in the clear. Now this. I guess, just like appliances, after a certain date, everything starts to break down.

Hello.. I just saw your message about your symptoms about possible esophageal cancer. I know you wrote that one year ago, so I'd like to know how you're doing now? Did you ever get into the doctor and get a diagnosis? I hope everything is okay with you!!

[@squishywatchbee3010]

@@animaltalk1515 , hi! I am ok, thank you. I have not been able to go get a scope done yet because I took a very bad fall down the stairs, collapsed a lung and had a long recovery that took precidence, as well as having adult children with serious health problems. So I have been trying to care for them. The issue couldn't possibly been what I feared or I would have been much sicker by now. I still have the symptoms, only now I also just rarely get hungry. I feel sick to my stomach all the time and practically live on nauseau meds. I have pretty severe iron deficiency anemia, which I really don't know the source. How are you doing? Thank you for asking. God bless!

Hello, I hope that you are doing well all these years and months later! This upcoming Wednesday I have to have an endoscopy done. I can relate to what you said because I have a hiatal hernia that needs surgically repaired, I also have a lot of stomach acid and regurgitation! Needless to say I am very afraid of esophageal cancer. I found a white spot on one of my tonsils, it's painless and doesn't hurt at all but it's still concerning and the doctors aren't sure what it could be it's very tiny though. Then I also have to do a barium swallow in a meeting with an ent, I'm pretty sure that I'm okay I just probably have worked myself up so much with paranoia! I think Googling drink times like this is the worst thing you can do lol. Hopefully you're doing well, did you ever get into a specialist since this last post​@@squishywatchbee3010

Don't think bringing strong acid from your stomach to your throat when your being sick exactly helps either, I drink milk afterwards alkaline counterbalancing acid and all that.

Your correct i think, bile would have stomach acids. Which would irritate or burn. Stay Golden

Hi , thanks for sharing, I hope things have been resolved and your both much better. Over this past year I've had ct scans and nothing , xrays and nothing, then a ct scan with contrast and finally Highlighted a mass in my lower right lung , I went for biopsies and the drugs just didn't knock me out , they made me the complete opposite, wide awake , the drs , I could hear them whispering and after a bit let them know to stop now lol they must have got a fright lol I was wide awake they had coverd my eyes but I could still see , and speak enough to tell them when to stop. Next day I had a petscan . Then next day I was to go into another hospital to knock me out with something else, when I arrived , the doctor came to tell me , they didn't need to do the biopsies as it had cleared , I thought WOzw, I've performed a miracle on myself, now that is miraculous. I really did start to feel better I was eating again , then boom its back. Which beggers the question, was it ever away in the first place or was that just said to keep people positive.
