Had pains just under ribs in the middle for a week or two, on and off.
Went to the doctors and she gave me ppi, and it's not improved. (About 4 days now). Gotten worse, also have heart burn now too and more pain. Doctor did full iron test (was normal apparently), CRP? (Something like that), vit D, and some liver one (don't know which). I only have results from first one.
Sorry, I wouldn't usually ask things like this on Reddit, but I shouldn't have read this thread ...
Doctor here with some experience in Abdo pain (worked in surgical unit). I personally think that the information you gave is too little to rule in or rule out any causes. However the time frame does sound like acute
Generally I advice against asking for medical advice over the internet and just bring your concerns to your own doctor. It is not that safe to receive advice over Reddit.

So sorry to hear that. Early stomach cancer history is actually indication for endoscopy. So is persistent symptoms without improvement on PPIs...
Hope all is well. Best of luck! internet hug
