for some time now i keep suffering with stomach discomfort and feeling sick. theses syptoms are regular but not consent (im not pregnant) and after eating now im starting to get the syptoms and first thing in the morning i can feel really sick followed by sharp pain . I seem to be belching more. the pain in my stomach is just under my chest in the upper part of my stomach and down my side. im starting to worry it could be stomach cancer!! because i just keep feeling so bloated and sick if i dont eat the pain in my stomach is really bad and when i do i feel sick. Im also noticing a loss of appettite.

Hello,
Many of your symptoms are consistent with acid reflux disease and you may benefit from antacid medications like Ranitine. Also keeping the head end of the bed elevated while sleeping or lying down will help. If the symptoms persist you should see a doctor for further evaluation.
