Why this petition matters

Started by Sonia Forde

All people whether young or old should be offered a scan when they present stomach issues related to cancer of the upper GI when presented at there first appointment with there GP,  stomach cancer has been over look for many decades when it should be offered on a yearly basis regardless of age and medical history, stomach cancer has no symptoms in the early stages which should be changed  considering stage 4 stomach cancer has less of a chance of a late scan if doctors are not offering at first go appointment something needs to be done so the survival rate is high, and lives are not lost, when lives  could be saved.
