Update on endoscopy result re stomach cancer

Hi

This will be an anxious time for you until you get the pathology results.  If it is stomach cancer, it will be early stages and there will be a treatment plan.  I had similar symptoms and the endoscopy didn’t find anything but there was a small patch that was cancer.  I had chemo and then a partial gastrectomy.  That was four years ago and I now lead a normal life, eating and drinking as before.

Hopefully you will get the results soon and it may well be a gall bladder issue, which has similar symptoms, so it may not be cancer.

Fingers crossed!

Thank you so very much for your encouraging reply !  It is comforting to hear of a similar case ……I’m so glad it’s turned out well for you . I know the uncertainty you suffered though at the time . I had breast cancer years ago …..surgery and chemo . I was very fortunate indeed that time .

Gall bladder already removed …so not the problem . Keep going like this and I’ll literally be “ half the person I was !”.

Thankyou again …..it’s helped me tremendously Jac .

So sorry to hear you have had cancer before!  It’s not good to find yourself in that movie again!   Do you have a date for getting the results?  It’s usually a couple of weeks!  It will be such a anxious time!

Try to find things to distract you but that’s not so easy if you feel unwell!

Take care x

Bless you ……yes I was 42 and was warned it was aggressive. I had an amazing oncologist…..the chemo was extreme but so worth it ! I’m now 76  ……..timing a bit unfortunate lol 

I’ve got a good support network with family and friends …..and I really am grateful for your input . They didn’t give me a time line , but looking up the procedures……I reckon 2-3 weeks . 
Thank you again …..will let you know
