What Causes Burning Sensation In The Stomach?

I feel hungry after I eat because I have this strong urge to eat immediately. I also have a very burning sensation in my stomach after I eat and I can't seem to focus. At the same time I have been feeling dizzy and losing my balance. I dont normally feel like this but I have been feeling like this for more than a week now.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.

You have a typical history. Although seen commonly in acid peptic disease, such symptoms can be seen even in the cases seen rarely such as vascular insufficiency of the bowel due to arterial occlusion and so on.
So a battery of investigations is necessary , such as :
Investigations of blood, urine and stool,
Ultrasonography along with COLOR Doppler examination or a contrast enhanced CT scan is a must.
Upper GI Endoscopy is required.
A proper diagnosis can alone lead to a proper treatment plan to get you a cure.
I find this answer helpful
