Kasey Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Has anyone experienced having to have the esophagus stretched? Probably this is due to radiaton BUT I did not experience any problems until 10 -11 weeks after radiation was completed. Any input - appreciated.

Justakid Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Kasey- I have had it done three times. My radiation ended in August 2004 and I still have problems. I was scheduled to have it done again last month but my cancer returned in both lungs and there was really no sence in it at this point. Doc told me some people need it done more then others and it's from radiation damage. It sure does make swollowing easier with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
