Cancer Unlikely: From what you described you are not likely to have stomach cancer. You may try reducing your intake of food and drink. If you are even slightly overweight, it would help to lose weight.

Unlikely: Highly unlikely at your age with the exception of if you have certain genetic disorders (which unless you are adopted you would obviously know about); therefore, it is unlikely. It is probably dyspepsia. Possibly GERD.
