I have been experiencing epigastric pain since May, which has not improved with Omeprazole and Naproxen. The pain radiates to my back and is exacerbated by alcohol and rich foods. I have had normal blood tests and an ultrasound with low visibility of the pancreas. I am concerned about pancreatic cancer due to the symptoms and lack of clear diagnosis. What could be causing this pain and should I be worried about pancreatic cancer?
