Since the past 3 weeks, i often feel a sense of fullness in my chest, mostly after eating. sometimes it lasts all day. i burp constantly to relieve it, but it doesn't help too much. what can it be? is this characteristic of cancer?

Usually, heart conditions are worse with activity and are associated with shortness of breath. This may be inflammation of the stomach, gall bladder or pancreas.
