My partner has had problems with his Oesophagus (feeding tube that is from your throat to your stomach) for quite a while. He has had tests for years and nothing had come of it. In May this year he got sick and contracted Pneumonia and an Abscess on his lung, while doing more tests they found a hole in his Oesophagus to which was closed with a stent. After more tests he was told he has stage one cancer..... This has come to an absolute shock as nothing had ever been said from all the other previous tests. On his discharge notes from the hospital it says Low Grade Epithelial Dysplasia and Squamous Cell Carcinoma. It has been 2 months since discharge from hospital and no treatment was given apart from antibiotics for the abscess. He has been to St Luke cancer hospital in Guildford on Friday but nothing happened... only a talk and to put on steriods for the weight loss....
Please may someone tell me what Low Grade Epithelial Dysplasia and Squamous Cell Carcinoma mean please? i am desperate.
Thank you.
