Unlikely: at your age and with normal testing. Possible IBS exacerbated by anxiety or a lactose or gluten intolerance. Discuss with GI.

Unlikely: Anything is possible, but you have been rather extensively evaluated and nothing significant found. Both your age and the negative endoscopys mitigate against the presence of a malignancy.

Doubtful: At 24yo and with a normal CT and endoscopy, the likelihood of cancer is highly unlikely. With all your normal testing, which is a good thing, your symptoms point to a mild case of probable Acid indigestion. Anxiety can certainly worsen this so be sure to relax as best as you can and eat well, avoiding the classic trigger foods for acid issues. http://www.webmd.com/heartburn-gerd/features/heartburn-foods-to-avoid

Surgical oncologist: Assuming one has already seen a gastroenterologist, a surgical oncologist could review the data to guide one in interpreting the "spot" and selecting the next step in the evaluation and treatment.
