Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You should go for surgical removal of esophagus. You already have oesophagus cancerwith long ssegment of high grade dysplasia. Sooner or later it will turn in to cancer. So you should go for surgery followed by chemotherapy or radiotherapy according to need and type of cancer.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
