This week I saw Mr Ahmad Aly again, this time for swallowing issue. He was really pleased to see that I was doing well. I described my symptoms and about half way through he started smiling. The good news is that what I have is quite common and it is most likely scar tissue left over from the treatment. It is usually treated with a balloon that stretches the affected area. If it is really bad then a Stent can be inserted.
Of course there is the slight chance it is the cancer back but for now I am choosing to think it is the scar tissue. There are other reasons for the narrowing but for now it is go with the most likely.
