My ailment is a lesion at top end of food pipe just below trachea. It developed due to long time reflux of gastric acids from stomach . Undergone continuous chemotherapy and radiation treatment since 2014. Surgery was ruled out for remainder of lesion by Max speciality hospital and Lakeshore hospital after considering the sensitive location. Max now says that further chemotherapy is not advisable other than radiation treatment. However radiation department says further radiation treatment in my case is risky due to proximity to lungs,heart and other organs .If untreated it may cause further growth of lesion restricting passage of food and liquids to stomach
