Getting diagnosed with stomach cancer

See your GP if you notice a change that isn't normal for you or if you have any of the possible signs and symptoms of stomach cancer.

Your GP should refer you to a specialist or to have tests if your symptoms could be due to stomach cancer.

There is no national screening programme for stomach cancer in the UK. But you may have tests or treatment if you are at an increased risk of developing it.

You might have a number of tests to help diagnose stomach cancer and to find out the stage. This helps your doctor decide what treatment you need.
