A doctor has provided 1 answer

There may be no symptoms early with gastric cancer. Upper abdominal discomfort after eating,nausea,decreased appetite & weight loss,black stools caused by stomach bleeding are some symptoms. If you have none of these symptoms & feel quite well, I wouldn't obsess about stomach cancer at your age.
