Hi there my husband has been diagnosed with oesophagus cancer and I'm terrified 

Hello both

I'm so sorry to hear your loved ones have been diagnosed with OC.  There is lots of information on this forum.  If you type "Oesophageal Cancer" in the search bar above you should get  links to all sorts of brilliant stuff.

Janesdad, in terms of your Dads vomitting I would suggest (but I don't know) this is secretion rather than standard vomit.  When Steve was at his worst symptomatically speaking, before his op, he was often wretching but it was mucus and bile which reduced as the chemo took effect.  Please speak to your GP, there is medication to help manage this.

Karenbelle, Write down every question you have, however daft and don't leave the consultants room until you have answers to them all.  OC is horrific, BUT there is treatment available so keep everything crossed and try to take every day as it comes.  please remember in all the worry and panic, to look after yourself. 

Take care

Ruth
