Unlikely if it is: going down in size. Not sure what could do that. The overall size, consistency are other features that can be evaluated on an exam. Single, uner 2 cm, hard but very discreet without attaching to surrounding structures would be signs of not cancer.

After diagnosis of stomach cancer, how long does it take for symptoms to develop? I was diagnosed in the first week of June with a cancer that hasn't spread beyond the stomach (except possibly to a few nearby lymph nodes). There is no sickness/pain.
