Symptom #8: Jaundice

Jaundice is the yellowing of the eyes and skin. This can occur especially if the stomach cancer has metastasized (spread) to surrounding structures. In this case, jaundice occurs when the cancer has spread to the liver. This means that the patient has an advanced stage of stomach cancer.
