Well, my mom takes nine pills, and has a heart condition (Not too serious!), thyroid condition, and an acid reflux. She's fine with that, she has her meds. A few days ago she went to the doctor, (She's never been to this doctor before!). Now my mom has had this thing since my grandma died which was caused by stress to where she has a burnt-out esophagus. She ate out her esophagus, not literally. It is pre-cancerous, the doctor gave her meds and said that they'll have to give her a procedure where they put a camera in her throat. The reason they're doing this is because they think it might be cancerous now after 8 years. I really don't want this to be true. My mom says she's just worried and that's why sge's saying it, but how she says it makes me think otherwise that there's an 85% chance even though they're may not be. It could be lower. My mom always does this and is wrong. I hope she is now! What can I do?
Also, they won't be able to remove the cancer, so no it's not treatable. I think she's just worried but she makes it seem like she is definitely sure she has it... I know that's just her, but this is serious!
