Hi and thanks for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about all these findings and all the inconveniences this must have caused you. I am sure you must have been worried by this malignant appearing phrase.

This is because a lineman be misleading as other non conclusive elements are really needed for a comprehensive interpretation and second opinion. For this reason, I will suggest that you kindly upload the report for a personalized and helpful response.

A small hiatus hernia was present.

Brief Answer:
Let’s wait for the biopsy report!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have reviewed the report. The only thing is to follow up with m when the biopsy results are back. At that time, more specific information would be provided and a plan on how to go about this suggested. Though this sounds like cancer may be blamed, we need be careful in our approach.

I hope to hear from you.
