Hello guys.
Really worried about Stomach cancer. It all Started on Thursday 03/03/22.
I woke up not feeling great,had a little bit of diarrhoea and upper Abdominal pains.
That night,the pains were so bad!!! And slept terrible. By Sat I was feeling sick,and went off food. I threw up a little bit of blood. I went to A&E Doctor said I was fine.
During the next week, I went up to the doctors another 2 times becusse I kept feeling rough,being sick. I never threw up food,as I still managed to eat. Did looose some weight,mainly from the stress.
Docs said I was extremely anxious,and prescribed Citaopram. By Friday, I was sick a few more times. Went to bed,and my stomach felt like it was on fire. Pain all across it,stabbing.
Went to A&E and they gave me Omeprazole for Gastritis. they done my bloods and all normal. Seems to have got better. Less pain,and able to do stuff.
I'm really worried tho that it could be Stomach Cancer. Reading symptoms online tho and I didnt have many!?
Also I would have thought Cancer would be gradual??? My symptoms started within a few days.
Hope you can help.
Cheers
Hi and welcome to the online community
I had a different type of cancer so can't help with whether your symptoms mean that you could have stomach cancer or not. However, you've said that you've seen your GP three times and also been to A&E and all the tests are normal which sounds positive. If the symptoms don't go then have another word with your GP.
Wishing you all the best
