I agree with others about getting a 2nd opinion.
My mother died of pancreatic cancer, so I worry about. I had genetic testing (for breast cancer) and there was no indication of higher risk of pancreatic cancer, but that does not mean I do not worry.
I have lost weight recently and of course I was concern. It turned out to be a new medication I was taking that decreased my appetite, but I did have some upper GI tests. Found a small ulcer and a biopsy discovered I had Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) which does cause belching.
Here is more info about SIBO:

Treatment was antibiotics regiment over 6 month period. A week on, 3 weeks off, repeat with another antibiotic, etc...
I have also had abdominal MRI and did show small cysts on both pancreas and liver. Had a discussion about cysts with my breast cancer oncologist and she assured me due to small size it was not a concern and not an early indication of cancer. Will continue to monitor.
I hope you get some answers soon.
