There could be several reasons for this. You should go to the doctor and get checked out. The main reason you want to go is that either 1) you can get treated, problem solved, and not worry anymore or 2) get medication, get a problem under control and not worry anymore.
Either way, if you've had ongoing indigestion for 2 weeks, you need to see a doctor. It could become something serious, and then you'll go to the hospital, and I'm sure you really don't want that.
For the time being, try eating small meals more frequently (about 6 times a day), and cut out as much fat as you can, including oils, butter, fried foods and fatty meats. Stick to fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats (poultry, fish) and fiber-rich grains. That should help with your discomfort until you can get checked out. I know, it sounds like the anti-male diet, doesn't it?
If you'd like more information, I highly recommend the symptom checker at WebMD. It's not always totally accurate (it misdiagnosed my hiatal hernia - note, it's not a hiatus hernia, it's hiatal - but overall it's good and can give you more helpful suggestions. - http://www.webmd.com)
Good luck!

You could have an ulcer in your stomach or possibly an infection known as Helicobacter pylori for which you will need a few types of antibiotic.
Either way, you need to visit your GP and get some definitive advice and treatment sooner rather than later

GO SEE YOUR GP IT COULD BE A STOMACH BUG, YOU CAN GET A BUG THAT LIES DORMANT IN YOU STOMACH YOUR GP CAN SEND YOU FOR A BLOOD TEST, NEEDS A STOOL SAMPLE, A DOSE OF ANTIBIOTICS DOES THE TRICK.
THE SOONER YOU SEE HIM THE QUICKER YOU'LL GET BETTER, SO YOU HAVE TWO CHOICES SEE YOUR GP OR CARRY ON FEELING SICK ALL THE TIME AND HAVE THE SHITS

Make an appointment to see your GP. There could be several causes for your symptoms - gallstones, peptic ulcer disease, hiatus hernia...to name the most common. Your doctor will do the necessary tests and referrals if needs be.

maybe you have changed something in your normal routine. Maybe your sleeping hours or what your eating? maybe when your eating is a problem? make sure you have 3 proper meals a day. talk to your GP, they will help.

Could be one of many reasons. Constipation, hiatus hernia, heart problem.
No one can tell you on here why, you need to get it checked out by a doc.
