My condition was noticed by alert specialist when having a scope follow up to check treatment for minor stomach issue. No history of reflux, heartburn or indigestion. etc. Biopsy showed malignant tumour in very early state.

I also had no reflux, heartburn or indigestion just a feeling that something was not quite right. Fortunately I had a doctor that believed in diagnosis before treatment and sent me to be checked. I send him a Thank you card every 5 years to tell him I am still here and grateful. It is due soon after 20 years. I now have to factor in some of the signs of old age something I wasn't supposed to achieve. Sally
