Hello doctor. I am from pakistan. My aapse ye kehna chahta hoon ke mere father ko khane peene mai masla hona shuru hogaya tha. Tou hum ne check up karwaya tou pata chala ke inhe gizah ki naali mai cancer hai. Inka weight 49 kg hai. Or age 72 years hai. Ap se mashwara lena tha ke inka treatment karwaye ya nhe. Ye abhi slice or naram chezen khaa rahe hain. Kum kum. Lekin khaa rahe hain. Surgeon ne operation ka mana kardia hai. Inka immunity system dekh kar. I will be very thankful agar aap koi acha opinion deden. Ke aage kia karen. Ye cemo wager bhi bardhast nhe kar saken. Ye yahan ke Dr. keh rahe hain. Abhi starting hai.

lybrate-user, your father is diagnosed as cancer in esophagus (food pipe). According to your description looks like he is still good condition to undergo radiation therapy and weekly chemotherapy together, if he is not operable. Few routine investigations and symptomatic treatment can keep the patients side effects in check. This will help in improving his swallowing capacity and quality of life. He may also need high calories nutritional/diet supplements support. Along with all this lot of psychological and motivational support also will be needed to go through this journey. The matter of fact is all treatments for cancer have few side effects. Many of which are temporary and patient recovers from it soon. In case he can't tolerate chemotherapy, he can continue with only radiation therapy. Please go ahead and get him proper evidence based (depending on his stage of disease) treatment at any cancer centre by an oncologist. Wish your father speedy recovery.
