UPDATE: I've found a Lump at the top of my Tummy about an hour ago. Don't know how long it's been there. I don't know what it's called, but it's the areas between the Rib Cage just above the Arche where the Stomach/Liver sit, where the Esophagus runs down I presume.
I've already made a Post on here thinking I had Pancreatic Cancer a few Months ago, but since I've had both an Ultrasound and IV Contrast (Not Oral) CT Scan (both Clear) I'm starting to think I have Stomach Cancer as I didn't have the Oral Contrast. Didn't know Oral Contrast was a thing as I wasn't told about it.
I was meant to have a Gastroscopy back in April this Year but I was too scared to go through with the Procedure and now my Symptoms are getting worse. I'm starting to really Panic, keep thinking I'm going to really Regret not having the Procedure when I could have a few Months back.
This is a Shorter but more detailed Post than my last a few Months Back. If you want to see my other Post you can to get a more detailed view.
Back in March of last Year (2020) I Started getting Pain in my lower Abdomen below my Belly Button. This started one Night a few Hours after I ate a Kebab, so I thought it was Food Poisoning. A Day or two later I went to the Hospital to see what I could do about Food Poisoning.
Over the next few Month's the Pain persisted and in June or July (can't remember) I sat on the Toilet one Day to have a Poo and after I finished, I got up turned around and saw loads of Blood in the Toilet. When I started to wipe my Behind, I noticed that all the Toilet Paper was Red. I contacted my Doctor and told them what happened and he told me to see if it happens again. Around that time I had Black Tarry Stools too for a while before then and a while afterwards.
The Pain persisted and in October 2020 I started to get a New Pain, this time above my Belly Button in the Left Side in line or just below my Bottom Left Rib. I'm not sure if the Pain changed or it's a completely different Pain because it feels and acts very differently than the previous Pain.
The Pain itself feels like a Dull Ache and sometimes a Burning Ache. It comes and goes throughout the Day randomly and can last a few Seconds to a few Minutes, Eating can set it off again. I occasionally get a Sharp Ache a little further up in or behind the Left Ribs after Eating and sometimes when Breathing.
Most of these Symptoms started within the past couple Months
● Along with the Pain I feel constantly Tired all the time even though I now sleep 10-11 Hours. Sometimes I can't sleep because of the Pain, even though I'm tired.
● I suffer a lot from Indigestion and Burp a lot more than I used to from Gas Build-up.
● I feel constantly Sick, Eating and Drinking makes the feeling worse.
● I also get Bloating after Eating
● Occasionally when I Eat, I get Food Stuck at the back of my Throat. Every time I try Swallowing afterwards, it hurts until it gets Dislodged.
● Loss of Appetite
● My Stools are very Soft and my Bowel Habits change quite often. Wednesday (30th June) I started getting very Watery Diarrhoea and Yesterday (2nd July) I went 4 times within 1 Hour.
● Around where the Pain is (In line/just below Left Rib) I get Gurgling every time I Push my Stomach out or Breathe in (Well, same Motion) and sometimes it's accompanied by the Pain. It's never been this frequent or as Load as it is now. When I Jog, it happens constantly as I Run. Sometimes I can also hear Liquid/Water moving around along with the Gurgling.
● I have a constant Tightness around my Upper Left Abdomen, it gets that Tight that I can't feel that part of my Abdomen like it's been Numbed. When I can feel it, it feels like I have a Tight Belt around it and I can't fully Breathe in/Push my Stomach out like it gets Stuck.
● I've bring up Blood before as well a few times, but I'm not sure. It could be a Gum issue as it's in my Saliva.
● Don't know if this is related or not but about 1-2 Months ago I noticed my Left Eyelid has Lowered and my Eyelids are no longer Even. One of my Pupils are Smaller than the other all of a sudden as well. It's become more noticeable in the past 2 Weeks and I've started getting occasional Twitching in my Eye. It also feels like I have something in my Eye and my Eye Aches. My vision isn't what it used to be.
The Eyelid thing has made me more worried as I've done my research and it could be Horner's Syndrome caused by a Pancoast Tumour. Stomach Cancer, normally spreads to the Lungs and that's made me even more worried than I was before it started as it's confirming even more that I have it.
Don't know how Common Stomach Cancer is in a 25 Year Old Male but I do know Stomach Cancer and Bowel Cancer are on the rise in Young Adults.
