Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you should not worry at all for gastric malignancy.
Your report suggest hyperplasia. Which is not suggestive of cancer.
Dysplasia is disorganized growth of cells and it is suggestive of malignancy.
Hyperplasia is not indicator of cancer. So no need to worry much. You are not having cancer.
