“The first signs of stomach cancer can also often be vague and include changes in appetite or weight, including feeling full after eating small amounts and nausea and vomiting,” explained Dr Mehta.
“Early stomach cancer can also bleed into the stomach, which reduces the number of red blood cells and presents as anaemia on a blood test, another potential warning sign.
“While some of these symptoms are relatively common and can be caused by other gastrointestinal conditions, such as acid reflux or ulcers rather than cancer, individuals should still discuss these with their doctor if such symptoms have persisted for three weeks or more.”
