- Learn more about the role of your stomach and learn more about the signs and symptoms of stomach cancer that you should be aware of.
The stomach is part of the body’s digestive system, located in the upper abdomen.
It acts as a temporary storage area for food before being mixed and broken down and passed through the rest of the upper gastrointestinal system.
Stomach cancer - sometimes also referred to as gastric cancer - occurs when abnormal cells in the stomach grow out of control. This may also occur in the junction where the stomach meets the oesophagus.
Unlike other cancers, there is no early detection test for stomach cancer.
The symptoms are often vague and can be similar to other medical conditions - so it’s important for you to see your GP for a review if you experience symptoms that are unusual for you or persistent.
The symptoms you should be looking out for are:
🔎 Ongoing abdominal pain, discomfort or a burning sensation in the stomach
🔎 Indigestion, reflux or heartburn
🔎 Loss of appetite
🔎 Excessive fatigue or weakness
🔎 Nausea and vomiting
🔎 Unexplained weight loss
🔎 Low iron levels
🔎 Black stools
🔎 Blood in vomit
Along with lifestyle factors such as your age, smoking, diet and being overweight, there are other factors that may increase your risk of developing stomach cancer.
These include:
🩺 Chronic stomach conditions, such as chronic gastritis, gastric polyps
🩺 Bacterial infections like helicobacter pylori
🩺 A family history of stomach cancer
It is important to see your GP if you are experiencing any of these symptoms, especially if it is unusual for you or persistent.
An earlier diagnosis can make a difference to your treatment options.
Don’t ignore the warning signs.

I read that it could cause stomach cancer.
@@marymarth7298 I have been searching for days. What I have learned is H. Pylori is a precancerous condition. I'm trying to find stats on chronic gastritis caused by H. Pylori turning to cancer. 4 years seems to be a number I am hearing in patient stories. I know I shouldn't be googling but I must find something, anything, to bring to my doctors to show them they may be wrong. I'm exhausted. I've been at it for a week and a half but I can't stop. Today I will find that glitter of hope. I will.
@@NewAccountWhoDis I wish you good luck and good health. Remember to stay hydrated-water is best and really try to get frest vegetables along with fresh fruit. xoxoxo
I’ve been battling with h pylori for over 4 years now and I’m only 24 years old worried that I might stomach cancer now because I feel so full after I eat and my tummy is just not the same no more I can’t eat nearly anything
You have my maximum respect Dr Pius Oziegbe for putting on end to my Hsv virus. the report come out Negative after applying your medication...
I have 3 of them should i be worried?💀 First diagnosis was gastritis, endoscopy revealed h pylori recently they found some tags in sigmadoiscopy which looks like polyps one-two weeks I've been experiencing burning/sharp pain on upper part of the stomach, before it was pain on both sides in hip region
Did you get a diagnosis? Praying for you.
what’s the update on your situation
@@wydmatt7294 i almost forgot about this comment, i still have random pains... I've not gone for further investigation, tbh they didn't even know what exactly was it ....the general practitioner i went to said "with these medicines (the gastro physician prescribed) should've been gone by now..". Since then I've not step foot on a hospital nor i tell my family anything about anything i just let it be, it's almost the same not much has changed very minor changes in bowel habits... So if y'all don't see me in 5-20 years y'all know what ate me lol
