What its like: A BIG swallow.. A 50 minute look down – 3 Endoscopies in one sitting (lying). See below.
What they look for: 1. After initial orientation, 2. Tumor position, size and thickness are measured using UltraSound. 3. Further biopsies are then taken.
What they found: Whilst the tumor was identified as being very small, swelling from previous biopsies made it difficult to determine the tumor’s actual size. The results suggested a possibility of Stage 2. Mixed news
Those 50 minutes could have been hell-on-earth, had it not been for the fabulous sedation and a lovely nurse stroking my head and saying encouraging things throughout...
