Stomach growth

---

i dunno the name for it.. but, does anyone know anything about a fatal growth in the stomach....I really don't have any more details then this.. I just herd people die in the operation alot..Sorry I don't have any more details then that. I don't know any more details then that. thats all that I really know

I think I've heard of that as a C.O.D. somewhere, the expansion of a stomach, giving no room in the body for the other organs and therefore resulting in death. I can't seem to find it on Google or Wikipedia, but I'm pretty sure I've heard of it.I don't have much information to give, either. Sorry. :T

oh

I have something that will void any worries my last post may have caused you!It turns out the thing I was talking about, C.O.D. of stomach expansion, is pertaining to a condition where someone had their brain signals never get to the rest of his body to tell this person that he was full, and as a result, he was a bottomless pit - unable to stop eating or to satiate his hunger.He died of asphyxiation from gastric distention - his stomach expanded so much so that there was no more room for his other organs, and as a result, suffocated. I'm pretty sure this kind of asphyxiation isn't concerning whatever problems you may be having right now. Sorry to cause anxiety for you!

that does little to ease my woes.

Well, sorry. :T. But as far as I've heard, stomach expansion is caused by the condition I've described in my prior post

I don't think its nessicerly like the stomach is growing however, there is a growth in the stomach. Like.. a tumor or something. (i don't think it is a tumor.)

If you haven't had an X-ray or scan, you should get one.Any growth is called a tumour, though not all tumours are malignant and life-threatening.

What makes it complicated is this isn't me.

I wish it was me.. but, its not.

To my knowledge its been described as fatal. I get the idea fatalities are pretty common from whats been discussed.

That sounds like a cancerous tumour. However, I suggest you try to get more precise information. When there's not much information, often things get garbled in transmission. A small risk from an operation might get exaggerated, for example.

True.. Other factors might also be playing a part.. too much is unknown at the moment.
