What are 3 symptoms of stomach cancer?
Stomach cancer can manifest through various symptoms, with three primary ones being abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, and difficulty swallowing. Abdominal pain, often felt in the upper abdomen, can persist and present as pressure, aching, or sharp sensations.
Unexplained weight loss, particularly a sudden drop in weight without changes in diet or exercise, can be a warning sign. Difficulty swallowing, known as dysphagia, may occur, especially if the tumor is located near the junction of the esophagus and stomach, making swallowing uncomfortable or painful. These symptoms, while associated with stomach cancer, can also indicate other health conditions, underscoring the importance of seeking medical advice for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

usually if I check my temperature while having bad chills where my skin feels warm to the touch to me it'll only be like 99° which isn't like a real fever but still an increase from my normal so it makes sense to feel feverish then.. I'm not using feverish to mean just very cold and shivering there's a difference you can feel even without running a real fever -_- but past couple days I get chills and it's like just 96° 😑 actually sort of low at least for me idk.. normally it's really unbearably hot in my room because the ac kind of doesn't reach my room so I can't stand even wearing pants in here but I slept with a sweater and hood pulled over my head last night -.- irs like 80 degrees at night....
#having uti kind of pains i hopr my kidneys dont explode#i so regret the massive amounts of ibuprofen i took in 2023 but if it didnt give me an ulcer w symptoms then my kidneys should be fine ihope

shoutout to disabled and chronically people with symptoms that are seen as "gross" by the wider world. shoutout to people with digestive issues and illnesses. to people with problems with their stomachs or intestines or bladders or anything else. to people who struggle with vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, or anything else. to people who use diapers. to people with ostomy bags. to people who use the bathroom in other atypical ways. to people who have to collect stool samples for tests/labs. to people on rectally administrated medication. shoutout to people on liquid diets or other specific medical diets, to those with feeding tubes, to anyone with different needs regarding nutrition and hydration. shoutout to those who only sees their condition represented as something weird or gross, as something only talked about as the punchline of a joke.
shoutout to anyone who is afraid to talk about their lives, symptoms, or treatment to those around them for fear of being labeled "gross" or "weird" or "disgusting".
there is nothing wrong with you and you are just as worthy of existing and sharing your experiences as anyone else.
#this post brought to you by my ulcerative colitis and the fact that these symptoms and difficulties are often ignored or brushed over#in discussions of illness and disability#because they are seen as weird and gross and unpalatable and uncomfortable to talk about#to the point that i and many others are uncomfortable or afraid to talk about everyday parts of our lives because we are called#gross or unseemly or weird or annoying or undesirable for having bodies that don't hold up to an abled standard of how things should be#despite the fact that they are a very real and normal part of many people's lives and deserve to be treated as such#txt#disability tag#chronic illness#chronically ill#disability positivity#i do not have every single one of these symptoms so i can't speak more on all of them but i wanted to be as inclusive as possible#to everyone who shares similar experiences#also this post especially brought to you by me telling people im having an unspecified hospital thing in a few weeks#bc i have no idea how they would react to me saying 'oh yeah im having another colonoscopy to make sure my illness is still under control'#which is like. normal! its a normal thing! sometimes people are sick and have 'weird' procedures about it! its normal!

you know what’s weird is i tried to stop taking omeprazole in like february or march 2023 after taking it for like 6 months and i started having #MajorProblems so i had to start taking it again like immediately. but then i decided last week i was going to stop taking it after almost 2 years and so i haven’t taken it since tuesday and it’s been like. fine. literally what could this mean
#and i know it’s for like. heartburn/acid reflux but i was taking it for ulcer reasons#and i also know you’re only supposed to take it for 2 weeks but my dad has been taking it for like 5 years#for ulcer reasons. on the advice of his doctor. but see i was taking it on the advice of him. and he’s not a doctor he’s a civil engineer#so i was like. well i should probably not do this indefinitely right#but i was also scared to stop because i didn’t want Symptoms. but well. i haven’t really had any#so i guess it’s like. fine#but then why(simon) did i have problems when i tried to stop after 6 months

Physical symptoms rn are horrifying and worse than I’ve ever experienced. The ironic cruelty is directly before this started, I had a therapy session about how difficult it was to manage my pain and anxiety, and I finally had a breakthrough.
Then, within hours, proceeded to have the worst experience of symptoms I’ve ever had in my years of dealing with this mystery illness, had one of the worst emotional breakdowns I’ve ever experienced and the most acute suicidal ideation as a result.
I don’t know what to say. All hope feels lost.
#btw the illness is 99.9% based on symptoms and family history ulcerative colitis#which untreated leads to colon cancer#and I can’t get a diagnosis bc health system#can’t even get a GI referral#and the fun part? because any of this started#colon cancer was my number one health anxiety fear#see the irony?#meant say before not because

God I'm so relieved, for context I've been having some pretty bad intestinal problems that are likely stress related for the last two months, it's been making me violently ill and any food I manage to eat isnt digested properly thus causing me to lose over 30lbs in just 2 months and upwards of 5 pounds every week, last week alone I lost 7 and I'm now underweight, I was able to get an urgent referral to see a GI specialist however after calling around for HOURS I discovered that the soonest every available specialist within 2 hours of my home can get me in, even with an urgent referral, is fucking june. So obv I started panicking bc my condition is escalating and I cant hold out for another 3 months i need to be seen NOW and the reason I'm immensely relieved is because I FINALLY found a specialist who said they can see me in 8 days I'm so happy you guys dont even know how relieved I am, I'm finally going to get this treated!!!!!!!! :D
#i know the subject of unhealthy weight loss can be trigfering for some people so lmk if i should tag as anything else!!#vent#weight loss#tw ed#i dont have an ed btw its probably a massive ulcer or an infection but again i dont want to trigger any1 with my symptoms

every person who says self diagnosis is bad has never actually dealt with a doctor enough times.
#im not saying it works for everyone and im not saying you should go around with most things saying your self-dx-es#but you should actually um#bring it up with your doctor that um you suspect x and y are linked :)#maybe not use the names of the illnesses themselves#but certainly manipulate them into reaching this conclusion through how you portray your symptoms#im sorry#thats the ONLY way i got diagnosed with an ulcer vs gastritis#if you think self-diagnosis is ENTIRELY wrong be grateful you're privileged enough

I’m 99.9% sure I have a stomach ulcer. It’s official — 2023 is trying to kill me.
#stomach ulcer#the pain and burning has gotten worse and more frequent in the past few months#I can no longer brush off the symptoms as just chronic gastritis

good news is i drank some coffee and my headache is gone. Bad news is i’m not beating the caffeine dependence allegations
#the day i flew up there i did not have caffeine and developed a headache so i already knew wtf was up.#but see i DID have caffeine yesterday…just a little bit though. matcha protein shake#nothing compared to the 300mg i typically consume in my daily glass of bizzy cold brew#i loooooove that stuff a normal amount…back in 2022 i had some in my fridge when i first started having ulcer symptoms and well.#i made myself finish it off despite knowing it would cause me terrible pain and suffering because i was like That’s the good stuff#you’re not wasting that!

Good morning to every organ in my body except my stomach. Get your shit together
#went to a pediatrician for 5+ years for stomach issues and was on a medicine for 3+ of those years that sucked the calcium from my bones#just to try to help stop the pain only for her (very kind dr. btw) to really have no idea what was going on and just said it hurt-#when I was stressed (which is very logical for me) but it's such a weird issue#I was tested for celiac disease (which my sister has) but that wasn't it and if I get a small stomach virus it kicks the pain back up-#for weeks before settling back down. I can't have energy drinks anymore because the high amount of caffeine-#makes it feel like I've been punched in the stomach & I'm also cutting down on or completely cutting out red meat in my daily diet because-#my stomach doesn't seem to process it well and my stomach is already highly sensitive to greasy foods#the weekly stomach pain returned months ago and I'm getting real tired of it sometimes the acid reflux medicine doesn't even help either#and I've had symptoms of a stomach ulcer on and off but a lot more recently in the past year or two but I never got scoped to check for one#so now I have to go to my current doctor and talk with her and hopefully I'll get scoped but who knows I don't think it's an ulcer though#my stomach hurt while writing this it knows I'm talking shit lol#personal
