Gastro and Oesophageal Cancer – "Let's talk about LEGO-C"
In episode 2 we cover gastro and oesophageal cancers. Our GPs question how we can best ‘think cancer’ when patients present with vague symptomology. Weight loss, difficulty swallowing, and abdominal pain are some of the key areas covered – with useful safety netting questions shared to provide our listeners with increased confidence when considering cancer as a differential. This episode also covers Barrett’s oesophagus, the impact of radiotherapy from other cancer groups and key risk factors.

Head and Neck Cancer – “We really do need to be taking these things seriously…”
In episode 9 we ask: What is the head and neck cancer risk in people who have a higher intake of caffeinated coffee? (Hint: The answer may surprise you). We delve into research, statistics, and real case studies to identify common and vague red flag symptomology clinicians should be aware of to support the earlier diagnosis of head and neck cancer – and how using the right safety netting language can make all the difference.
