Stomach cancer

I have very painful nodes in my stomach which hurt when l touch them,  l have been having lots of symptoms that indicate it can be stomach cancer plus a few other things.  I'm waiting to have tests.  I have read that swollen painful nodes in the stomach can be a sign of advanced stomach cancer.  I have also lost weight 

  • Hello Kingsnorth

    I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with some health problems at the moment. It's understandable that you're feeling anxious about what may be causing these symptoms. 

    I think most of our members here will know just how difficult this period of uncertainty can be whilst waiting for tests and results. It can sometimes help to talk things through and I wonder if you might find it useful to have a chat with one of our team of nruses. they may be able to give you some information and support ahead of your next appointment. If you would like to chat with them they're available Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes,
