Does Refluxes, Back Pain, Difficulty Swallowing Indicate Esophagus Cancer?

I suffer from pretty bad reflux. recently I have been quite uncomfortable in the chest and have develop back pain. I have occasionally had difficulty swallowing but not often. I also have some difficulty breathing like I cannot get enough air. I am quite concerned this is cancer of the esophogas.

Welcome to Health Care Magic,
My dear friend as per your symptoms i will suggest you first to avoid spicy foodavoid coffee,smoking and alcohol.it will help to suppress your symptoms.Now we come to your query of esophagus cancer.its not very common.In esophagus cancer your weight will also decrease and you will feel very fatigue associated with other symptoms.
Your symptoms are going in favour of acid peptic disease.I also suggest to approach a nearest gastroenterologist to clear your all anxiety about cancer and to rule out any kind of esophageal disease.
Thanx.
