yes you can I have nodules that are cancerous right behind my sternum. I can not drink anything with out it being so painful. I am half way through radiation treatment. And I can t hardly drink or eat anything. It feels like a baseball is in my esophagus. I am scared that I will be put in the hospital with dehydration. This is the 5 th time I have had cancer. I have BRCA 1
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. BRA 1 positive patients tend to have multiple organ malignancy.  And esophageal cancer us common. They have incurable disease. So we can offer only chemotherapy and radiotherapy. When tumor advances it starts obstruction to the food pipe. So swallowing is very difficult and painful. In this kind of patients feeding jejunostomy should be done. Another way is parenteral nutrition.  In which nutrients like carboy Chat Doctor.  So better to consult your oncologist and discuss these options. You have to accept the fact.
