Be seen: It sounds like maybe gastritis or an ulcer. Be seen for a diagnosis.

? Ulcers ?: It is possible that the burning feeling that you are having is secondary to ulcers or excess acid in the stomach. When you eat it helps to neutralize the acid and your pain resolves temporarily. I would recommend seeing your doctor and consider having an upper endoscopy done to evaluate your stomach.
