Hi! Welcome to health care magic! Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. We will try to help you in best way possible.
First of all, it is sad to know what you had gone through. Based on the history you have shared, it seems less likely to be the cancer. it can be due to inflammation of stomach or acid peptic disease. As far as your concern regarding prolong use of percaset to be the cause, yes it is quite possible but it can also start in any individual. Your concern regarding blood work is also very true as complete blood picture can't be conclusive and other causes of such symptoms should be excluded like with liver function tests and pancreatic insufficiency work up. Final diagnosis can't be made on endoscopy of upper GI tract.
For the relief, to start with I would recommend avoiding greasy, oily, spicy or junk foods. Also avoid fizzy drinks and too much alcohol. For further relief using antacids like omeperazole or pantoprazole before meals and motility agents like domperidone or mebeverine will help with bloating, indigestion and other associated symptoms. Also keep a strong check on any profound weight loss and discuss with your GP if any. Hoping you a speedy recovery. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Regards
