Early Diagnosis is Key #CatchItEarly

Oesophageal cancer like many other cancers does not discriminate between age or sex and knowing and recognising the signs and symptoms are crucial to early diagnosis. If you suffer from any of the following symptoms for longer than 3 weeks you should consult your doctor.

Persistent Indigestion
Difficulty swallowing or food sticking
Heartburn acid reflux
Hiccupping that wont go away
Unexplained weight loss.
