I had my pre op endoscopy done on Monday. I awoke in the midst of the procedure in severe chest pain, with 3 doctors and a nurse crowded around the monitor. I was informed they had found a suspicious area in my esophagus, and had taken 4 biopsies. I am absolutely terrified awaiting these results. The doctor seemed very pressing when he was telling me to make sure I got a follow up appointment for 2 weeks to get the results. Has anyone had this experience? 

I have been having a burning sensation in my chest, much like heartburn pain, and pain when I have eaten too much in my chest and back. These are symptoms of both esophageal cancer, and a stricture in the esophagus. Anyones experience would be greatly appreciated as my anxiety awaiting these results is like torture. 

Have you had the results yet? I had my sleeve done in Mexico on march 3, 2010 without an endoscopy. In June I went to a gastro dr in the states and was diagnosed with esophogeal cancer. If you have it, they wind up doing a resection which will cut your stomach by 1/3 with a pull up. I had that as well. It is over a year down the road and I am cancer free and went from  271 to 115. I doubt the drs in the states will do the surgery if they find cancer, but you may only have barretts esophogus. If you want anymore information please feel free to ask.
