If you have cancer, you will have pain episodically all day long, not sparing nightime. So, please patiently wait for the endoscopic study.

Your risk of cancer of stomach or upper intestine is low. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. If you are overweight losing weight is likely to help.
