The nurse said that it won't be cancer as she's never had someone young complain about cancer-like symptoms. But she wanted me to take a urine sample.

Will it be stomach cancer or not? My parents told me they do these sort of stuff when people have stomach pain. And them and the nurse said it's very very unlikely for it to be cancer. What do u guys think it might be? Isn't this the first test they use to detect cancer?

Urine sample going to get sent off tomoz for testing but not I'm worrying cos what if they find abormal cells? Though I have been told it could be nothing. So it could be my anxiety. I also got told that there's lots of things it could be.

Still concerned it may be cance 😯😯😯

No that’s not the test they do for cancer.

I’ll give you a list

1. First a CBC (blood test) looking at your white blood cell count , platelets count and so on.

2. A cat scan looking for tumor or lymph nodes that are swollen.

If those test come back showing something wrong. You’ll have a bunch more test done.

Maybe a Pet Scan , maybe a Bone marrow biopsy, maybe a biopsy of a tumor or lymph node. If they thought you had a stomach issue an endoscope would be done to look at your stomach, a colonoscopy would be done.

Best wishes
