A member asked:

I have a dull ache/pain in my upper stomach in the middle that lasts all day everyday i think i have stomach cancer isuffer with health anxiety?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not cancer but...: As your age this is unlikely and this isn't how cancer announces itself. I suspect you have reflux esophagitis and you need to be evaluated and treated. How is the pain affected by over-the-counter antacids or other proprietary remedies that your pharmacist might recommend?
