What are the symptoms of stomach discomfort in patients with advanced gastric cancer?

  Patient: male, 58 years old. Due to the discovery of liver metastasis and pancreatic head metastasis of gastric cancer, he did not undergo surgery and was switched to Xelox regimen chemotherapy (oxaliplatin intravenous + Xeloda oral) for less than 5 courses. Now he is taking oral Chinese medicine treatment. The effect is average.  Current condition: wasting fast weight only more than 100 pounds, liquid food mainly, no hard food, all are easy to digest food, protein nutrition support; defecation, urination is normal, no pain in the body, the main symptoms are hiccups, early morning stomach distension and the middle of the night will defecate, rest weakness. For the last two days, I have been suffering from heartburn after dinner and diarrhea in the middle of the night (not serious), but since the follow-up date has not yet arrived, what medication can I take to relieve the symptoms of stomach distress after meals?  Doctor: Hello, I have understood your condition.  Stomach cancer with multiple metastases, pancreatic head and liver invasion, as well as liver ascites, is already in the advanced stage of stomach cancer. The existing treatment should mainly focus on controlling symptoms and reducing pain.  The symptoms you provide are typical of advanced gastric cancer, and with the further development of the disease, the above symptoms will be aggravated and can only be temporarily relieved by drugs.  Suggestions: 1. Take oral acid-suppressing drugs, such as omeprazole, pantoprazole, etc., at a dose of 10-20mg twice daily.  2, continue the current diet with a small number of meals, eat easily digestible food.  3.If symptoms such as vomiting appear after eating, do not force to eat, it may be obstruction caused by tumor, and you need to go to hospital in time.  I hope it can help you and wish you good health!
