Could This Be Stomach Cancer? Posted: 09-29-06 16:10pm
I have a knot in my left upper abdomen
below my ribs, not sure if it's my stomach
or spleen this knot is on. It's causing
me to bloat, have excess gas, hunger pains
right after I eat, pain around the area of
the knot, and I have these weird
blackish/dark greenish flakes in my stool.
Kinda looks like spinach or algae
embedded in my stool. I have no idea what
that is. I've also lost 23 lbs in the
past 6 months without trying to lose it.
I'm losing a steady 1 lb a week.
I have no idea if this is all related to
the gall bladder issues I had (removed in
march), or if it's related to my ovarian
cysts, or something different all
together.
Stomach cancer, or ovarian cancer that has
turned to stomach cancer is my biggest
fear. When I was young my cousin made me
drink commercial strength bug poison and
it almost ate the entire lining of my
stomach. I am woried that could have come
back to but me in the butt.

I am not a Dr. It sounds like you need
to have some tests ran, if for no other
reason just to relieve your mind and find
out what is going on and tell your dr what
happened. Maybe someone else might have
some other answers for you here or you
might want to try to ask the dr here or
should I say, go to doctor question on
this forum.
Keep us posted.
All the best!
