Detailed Answer:
Hello K
Thanks for writing to HCM

Pain in stomach region may be due to many reasons.Ultrasound and CT Scan can exclude many possibilities,but peptic ulcer which is important cause of pain in this region can't be detected by Ultrasound and CT Scan.
So,you need upper GI endoscopy.It will screen your stomach from inside.It can detect ulcer,mass etc.Possibility of stomach mass is important to rule out due to your age.
It is important to know about weight loss,heart burn,malena.
You should consult gastroenterologist.

Proper treatment depend upon findings.

Get well soon.
