Please do not ignore persistent stomach pain or acidity. In our family, we delayed consulting a specialist thinking it was just gastric trouble, and the cancer spread to the lymph nodes much faster than we expected. Go to a gastroenterologist for an endoscopy immediately.
Dealing with chronic gut issues has taught me to be very careful with self-diagnosis. Stomach cancer can spread quietly to nearby organs over several months, which is why we shouldn't rely on random guesses. It's always best to consult a specialist doctor and get proper scans done.
My uncle had this, and the doctor told us that stomach cancer can spread to the liver or lymph nodes within a few months once it reaches the advanced stages. In the beginning, it's very slow and silent. Don't wait around for symptoms to get worse, just get a checkup.
From a practical standpoint, the spreading speed of gastric cancer depends entirely on the stage at diagnosis. Early stages are slow, but advanced stages can progress rapidly within months. Save your time and get a proper clinical evaluation rather than searching for timelines online.

I get so anxious reading about this because it says it can spread without showing any major symptoms initially. It is really terrifying to think about how fast it can move. Please see a doctor quickly to get some peace of mind and clarity.
