Your consultant will have explained to you that you have a cancer of the Upper Gastro-Intestinal tract (Upper GI) affecting either your stomach or oesophagus (gullet). Being told you have cancer is naturally a shock to you and your family. During this time, you may experience a wide range of emotions and find it difficult to remember all you are told. This information is provided as a guide to what may happen; however, your consultant will discuss your individual treatment plan with you. Included is information about investigations you may have, treatments or procedures that may be recommended and what to expect next. Contact information for individuals who may be involved in your care are also included at the end of this page.
