I first realised something was wrong when out for a meal with relatives. I had difficulty swallowing food at the start of the meal and a succession of hiccups. Everyone thought it was a hiatus hernia but it turned out to be more than that. This blog is a summary of my journey through the system.

Scan Results
On the 31st October I met with the surgeon, a Mr Carter. There is a team of 4 operating in the upper GI area at QA Hospital Portsmouth so it could be any one of the 4 who would conduct my operation. However before that could be done there would be a laparoscopy, a keyhole examination of the stomach area in 3 places to explore inside.. The PET scan did not show any other organs involved but there was a small spot on one lung which could be residual from smoking which I gave up many years ago. The surgeon was outlooking surgery for February next year. Completed visit with bloods and an ECG.
