What Causes Ulcer?
I missed dinner friday night to catch a movie. I did ate a little salad and bread, though. After the movie, I felt nauseated and a slight burning sensation in my stomach. i thought I was just hungry. But I felt so weak and didn't have the appetite. I felt the same the next morning and took nexium. I still feel a little of the symptoms: nausea, lightheadedness and slight burning on my stomach. Is this ulcer? Stress?

Hi....
Welcome to healthcare magic.
As you mentioned you have problem of burning sensation in stomach that may be because of gastritis or ulcer or gastroesophageal reflux problem or indigestion problem or stress or alcohol drinking or h.pylori infection or other reasons.
Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
Detail history and investigation helpful for diagnosis.
Start a treatment as per reason behind it..
I hope this will help you.
Get well soon..
Thank you.
