A member asked:

Contrast ct showed mild thickening of stomach. doc said probably because stomach was empty. egd 1yr later showed nothing now ab pain for 8wks cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: If ct and egd did not show a cancer, it is not likely that you have one. Your pain does need to be investigated and you should see your doctor for an evaluation. It would be okay to get a second opinion.
