Welcome to the forums -

I’ve only recently been diagnosed with pernicious anaemia and although we are at increased risk of stomach cancer unless they suspect you have it they aren’t going to run any tests for it, a blood test wouldn’t be sufficient enough to diagnose stomach cancer anyway and with being on B12 injections they don’t have any need to run blood tests unless needed for something else.
