The CT scan

On 16th.October, had a CT scan with tracer at Chichester. This was quite straightforward but did involve no food for the preceding 6 hours. On the 22nd October I had a meeting with a consultant and also met my case nurse Adrienne. The presence of an esophageal cancer was confirmed, about 4 cm in length situated at the base of the oesophagus just before the stomach. No other organs seemed to be involved  and the cancer was considered to be operable. However, further tests were required before chemotherapy and surgery.
