Answer 1

Signs and symptoms
Burning pain is the most common symptom of a peptic ulcer. The pain is caused by the ulcer and is aggravated by stomach acid coming in contact with the ulcerated area. The pain typically may:

Be felt anywhere from your navel to your breastbone
Last from a few minutes to many hours
Be worse when your stomach is empty
Flare at night
Often be temporarily relieved by eating certain foods that buffer stomach acid or by taking an acid-reducing medication
Come and go for a few days or weeks
Less often, ulcers may cause severe signs or symptoms such as:

The vomiting of blood — which may appear red or black
Dark blood in stools or stools that are black or tarry
Nausea or vomiting
Unexplained weight loss
Chest pain

Your symptoms sound like you have an ulcer. Like you, I had so much pain that I didn't want to eat. And finally I threw up so much for 2 days straight that my doctor sent me to a specialist. The next day they found out that is was a duodenal ulcer.
You need to have your doctor send you to a specialist.
Milk may help you feel better, and soda will always burn your stomach. Your stomach acid is what gives you the burning sensation. The sooner you see a Dr., the sooner you will feel better. You will prabably get Nexium (purple pill) one a day. It worked great for me. After six months, I was healed. No more ulcer and no more medicine.
Good luck.

Some of the symptoms of stomach cancer in the early stages are:

Indigestion and stomach discomfort

A bloated feeling after eating

Mild nausea

Loss of appetite

Heartburn


Stomach cancer can be very difficult to diagnose because in the early stages, the symptoms can be absent or very mild. The symptoms listed above can be caused by cancer, but also by other, less serious health problems such as a virus or an ulcer.

In more advanced stages of stomach cancer, symptoms can include:

Blood in the stool

Vomiting

Weight loss

Moderate to severe pain in the stomach
