cancer stomach wall

I am a light drinker- glass of wine with dinner - But I am not having caffeine, alcohol, sugar and cows milk now to help heal hopefully (and maybe diagnose what is causing this stomach wall thickening)c Please see below to see the tests already done - A CT scan of abdomen and pelvis (in march 2013) showed thickening of stomach wall and sigmoid colon wall. Followed up with upper GI endoscopy and colonoscopy. Esophagus looked normal.

I had a upper G.I done last thursday and got the results back stating I have thickening of my stomach lining. I started with mild gastritis symptoms a couple years ago that two weeks ago became full blown which is why the doctor ordered the barium. I have been taking losec with some moderate improvement of symptoms and do not feel near deaths door like last week. I just am very worried about this thickening and worry it could be stomach cancer. Anyone else experience this with GERD or gastritis?

Many people have gallbladder polyps and have no problem whatsoever. Polyps in the gallbladder do not generally mean cancer, unlike polyps in other organs, like the stomach or the colon. Gallbladder polyps are generally watched - depending upon size - and if they start to grow then docs might suggest more tests or further action.

This modality may detect cancer, manifesting as a mass and/or focal or diffuse wall thickening, but evaluation is often limited as these organs are often partially collapsed, which can simulate wall thickening even if it not thickened. One advantage of CT is that it can detect if the cancer has spread outside the organ. For example, there may be adjacent abnormal lymph nodes or hematogenous or peritoneal metastases.

I have found nothing per say, but I always check the chest wall as well as my breasts and under my arm. I have noticed that one the chest bones on my left side a little under the collar bone protrudes slightly more than my right side. I have no soreness what so ever. As I never used to feel my chest wall before I got BC, I have no idea if this has always been the case. What is your view on it?

It only hurts when I lay down on my stomach too quickly or whenever a sudden force pushes on it, but it hurts as if I've bruised it or something which I may have because I ran into a wall. I've done some research, but I'm still worried that it may be something serious. I've only had it for about a week, but I haven't had any symptoms, no skin changes, no discharge, no symptoms of sickness. Except for a few days ago I experienced a sort of pain on the right side of my body.

I recently went to the doctor for abnormal bleeding, discharge, pain after intercourse, and irregular periods. I have a vaginal ultrasound showing sists on one of my ovaries and an area of my uterus was irregularly thick. My doctor did some bloodwork and now I am just waiting for the labs to get back. He didn't say much about what it could be which scares me a little because my doc is very open and forthcoming. I am 23, have two babies under 2yrs old, and had a tubal ligation last July.

He then had several more surgeries due to ecoli, abdominal abscess, hernia and body rejected the mesh (all do to colon perforation during colonoscopy where cancer was found) In 2007 he had surgery number 7 for small bowell obstruction from what was used to repair the hernia in 2004 adhered to colon and wall of stomach. June of 2008 we found out from an endoscope that the had a carpet of gastric polyps, in Nov of 2008 we found from an EUS that he had thousands of gastric polyps.

Cancer came back on the outside wall of stomach. Went away after chemo in 07. I am seeing a specialist next week at MD Anderson for assessment and recommendation.

I have had problems with nausea and stomach pains for a long while. I have recently undergone two separate endoscopies and an endoscopic ultrasound. Several CT scans and blood tests to go along with a Gastrin level test. I have a kidney disease known as Membraneous Glomerunephritis (MGN) and underwent chemotherapy about 9 years ago and still have to see the doctor for this about every 6 months. At last visit, MGN was still in remission.

The symptoms you described fit a diagnosis of an hernia very closely (not testicular cancer). An hernia is a condition where there is a weakening of the abdominal wall muscles, causing the abdominal contents (e.g. the bowels) to bulge out through the abdominal wall or sink into the scrotum. The testicle seems to enlarge as the bowels descend and occupy the scrotal sac. Pain can occur when the bowels get squeezed through the smaller compartment.

Ok, here is whats going on, I look nine mths pregnant( my stomach swells, but usually goes down) for the past 9 days it has stayed swollen.

Last yr. had total hysterc. for ovarian cancer. Oncologist checked CA125 last month; number has increased from 8 to 45. Had CT Scan, Colonscopy, tube placed down throat to look at stomach; found fluid in the wall of my lungs. Wants to began Docil therapy; 6 treatments to determine if this will place cancer in remission. Please offer some ways and things I can do to help myself.

t have PAIN, but burning in my stomach and a feeling of needing to go all the time, usually acompanied with gas. Occasionally I feel nauseated but rarely ever throw up. It almost feels like cramps use to feel when I had periods. I will have insurance in 3 months, but in the meantime, it's causing me a lot of anxiety. From what I've read, it seams to be inflammatory bowel disease, but i am concerned it could be some type of cancer and waiting for the insurance is a mistake.

Hi. The next step in the treatment would be to perform surgery to remove the blockage on the bile duct and relieve your mother's jaundice. This can be done either by placing a stent on the bile duct to prevent it from collapsing, or to insert a tube through the abdominal wall, directly into the bile duct to drain the accumulated bile (this procedure is called percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage or PTBD). Your mother may need to take stronger pain medication (e.g.
