Stomach cancer symptoms ???

Only a doctor could tell you that...Cancer can manifests itself in so many ways...I had the same issues, and mine all stemmed around my esophagus...Just continue to follow uP with a medical professional until you get an answer! Don't give uP and DO NOT try to self diagnose yourself on the internet! You'll drive yourself insane and have every ailment known to God! Not good for your mind! Good luck and I hope it all works out for you.

I agree with chrissy on this one...def good advice not to go looking on the internet or you will make yourself poorly (i speak from experience!) Make sure you attend all clinic appointments and in the meantime try to relax easier said than done i know. Let us know how you are.

The common symptoms of stomach cancer are-stomach ache, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, Discomfort in the stomach area, severe stomach pain, Feeling full or bloated after a small meal, Diarrhea or constipation and sudden weight loss.

The option of treatment depends primarily on the stage of disease, the size and place of the tumor and general health of patient.

Stomach cancer often does not have symptoms in the early stages, or they can be vague and non-specific -- such as nausea or weight loss. Also, there is no single symptom that exactly pinpoints stomach cancer; therefore, further evaluation and testing is required for a diagnosis.

Early stomach cancer often does not cause symptoms. As the cancer grows, the most common symptoms are:

* Discomfort or pain in the stomach area


* Difficulty swallowing


* Nausea and vomiting


* Weight loss


* Feeling full or bloated after a small meal


* Vomiting blood or having blood in the stool

In initial stages stomach Cancer can't be noticed,but there are some symptoms to identify it such as,lot of pain in stomach part,nausea,vomiting blood etc.

Stomach cancer can happen to anyone, it is not necessary to be druggist or alcoholic.

My mother just recently found out she has stomach cancer she has been suffering for the past 5 years with stomach problems. They told her she had a slow digestive system and gave her fiber drinks and pills to take which didn't help she had pains the past month and doctors told her it was her gallbladder but they would need to make sure she didn't have an ulcer well that's when they found out she had stomach cancer, The doctors were slow but they only guess and practice medicine and now we wait to see what stage the cancer is already but I have a feeling it's in the last stages since it's been five years of suffering, she can't eat, she's in constant pain and has lost a tremendous amount of weight! You need to find a good doctor that will do tests and not just write you off as to having some other ailment.
