Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
Yes, pancreatic cancer (mass) can cause burping and gaseous feeling in stomach.
Pancreas is situated on the posterior aspect of stomach.
So any mass in the pancreas can cause pressure on the stomach.
It also causes narrowing of the lumen of stomach.
So it can cause burping.
If you are also having simultaneous hiatus hernia, this can aggravate the condition.
So better to first confirm pancreatic mass.
Start proton pump inhibitors for burping.
Avoid spicy and hot food.
