Are You Experiencing Any Of These Symptoms? Contact Your Doctor ASAP!
This type of cancer is really dangerous and develops in the inner lining of the stomach. Its symptoms can be easily overlooked in the early stages, which is why you should carefully listen to what your body is trying to tell you… before it’s too late. Depending on the area of the stomach where it develops, this type of cancer produces different kinds of symptoms.
So, Here Are 10 Silent Signs of Stomach Cancer You Shouldn’t Ignore
1. Pain in the Upper Abdomen
In the earliest stages, stomach cancer doesn’t come with a lot of obvious symptoms. You may feel vague abdominal pain and discomfort in your belly but you’ll never think that you are a cancer patient when it first happens. That is why, you should pay attention if the signs persist.
During the later stages of gastric cancer, you may experience a buildup of fluid in the upper abdomen and severe pain. Unfortunately, if you detect the cancer in a developed stage, it will be harder to beat it… or, in some cases, it will be impossible.
Keep in mind that the pain may come and go when you suffer from stomach cancer. So, if you repeatedly deal with abdominal discomfort, you should see your doctor to make sure that everything is all right. Postponing your appointment will make everything worse. So, it’s way better to be brave and face the situation until it’s still under control.

I am suppose have a biposy ever 9 mo but due to insurance i haven’t had one in 4 yr
This article caught my eye because I just came home from the Emergency Room at our local hospital. For 6 days now, I have been experiencing sharp pains in my upper abdomen and some constipation. I have not been able to maintain my regular schedule at all. It is a sharp pain, followed by cramping; and it lasts for 2-4 hours each time it happens.
The ER doc ordered a CT scan with and without contrast, and it came back ‘normal’. They also did blood work and an EKG. All tests were normal.
I am a breast cancer survivor of 5 1/2 years, and this new illness (whatever it is) is alarming.
