long term stomach problem

hi my name is Manish. I am now suffering for almost all stomach problems for a long time, around 9 months. About my history, after a drink party around 9 months ago i suffered with constant upper abdominal pain and hyper acidity. I went to a gastro and after my endoscopy i was diagnosed with pan gastritis and h pylori positive. After medication ( antibiotic course for 10 days, ganaton and nexium) i was fine. But again after 1 month upper gi discomfort and contant bleching continued. As my age is just 28 i am very worriedif these are signs ofstomach cancer. Stool is normal, no vomitting but mild nausea, upper abdominal discomfort and lots of gas.
Please help.

Hey Manish!

Well, without a detailed clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Possibilities that may need to be considered include GI infections, inflammations, gastritis, GERD, GI motility issues etc. None of the symptoms described as specific of GI cancer. Aside appropriate medications, dietary and lifestyle changes such as avoiding spicy food, taking regular meals at short intervals, avoiding stress/ alcohol/ smoking etc ate also important as a part of treatment. I would suggest seeking a review with your treating gastroenterologist for a detailed evaluation and depending on the cause identified, it can be managed accordingly.
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!

Also drinking can cause pancreitis and those are connected with the gull bladder as well
