    Hi thingamajig,

    I understand what you are going through - ive had terrible problems for over 5 weeks now and it's getting much worse - nausea, pain, indigestion, appetite completely gone even when i do not have nausea. Stopped eating 2 weeks ago and have lost 10 pounds in the blink of an eye. Have an endoscopy planned for 25th to find out what's going on and am very scared right now as i fit the classic symptoms. Its really hard to not think the worst but let's just stay positive as best we can :-)

    Hi Thingamajig,

    It sounds like you are having a tough time, the fear of the unknown, is very scary.

    You may want to add yourself to the Stomach Cancer group as there are a few people on this link who are going through a similar experience to you at the moment.

    I hope you find some answers soon.
