My sister is suffering with lot of back and lower back pain and bloating in the stomach. Is it common with stomach cancer?

    YES its common
    Maggie,
    It will help if you post a LOT more information to get some good replies.
    Age of patient, stage, any and all information like dates and facilities and doctors and what has and has not been done, symptoms (you did list those) and all of that good stuff make it a lot easier for people to relate and offer meaningful advice. I hope this helps!

    I see you have posted twice in the last few days and no one has responded.
    You might try the esophageal cancer board too. A lot more people there. I don't know why.
    I have stomach AND esophageal cancer and so I check both, but since my caner is primarily esophageal at the junction and spread to the stomach, I landed there and I thinks it's a much more active group. No idea why.

    Good luck!
