For the last couple of weeks, I have been having a few problems with my eating and stomach.
When ever I eat anything, Straight afterwards I always get acid reflux. This can last from all day to a couple of hours. Also, my body tells me I'm hungry, but then I eat something, and realise I am full, and get more acid reflux. If I don't get the reflux, my stomach is really bloated and it feels like I want to throw up, but don't. Or if I am unlucky, I get both. And some times I feel slightly fatigued...
I am getting sick of feeling ill when ever I eat anything..
What could be wrong?

Honestly and this is my answer or a lot of things but I would consult your GP, talk to him/her and they can direct your from there. The possibilities are endless.

If you're eating a lot of foods like chocolate, spicy foods, alcohol, citrus fruits, caffeine and the like, those are prone to giving you more acid reflux than usual. Here (http://www.heartburnhq.com/acid-reflux-foods-to-avoid/) is some more info, but, of course, as Dimitri said, seeing your GP is always your best bet.

My best faris-like guess is that you have stomach cancer.

You might have lactose intolerance, but that does not it strikes out other possibilities.

I'm giving up dairy for a week and see if it makes any difference.

Also, you can substitute lactaid or soy/almond/rice milk too if you are missing milk (I saw your shoutbox post about missing dairy) and you can eat frozen yoghurt instead of ice cream. My grandma has lactose intolerance and she does alright that way. You can also take pills for lactose intolerance. If laying off the dairy helps, then you ought to get tested for lactose intolerance.

I have been without dairy for a bit now and I already feel quite a lot better. I have been having soy and rice milk.
Also, since not having dairy, my acid reflux has gone away (I haven't had it for like a day) where as I was having it for most of the day everyday.
I should get tested for lactose intolerance, but I have to be on fire or dying to go to the doctor. I hate going to them.

It could be Milk Allergy and not just lactose intolerance.

I would imagine it's some sort of acid reflux problem. Maybe it's acid reflux disease or just regular old heart burn.
Here's a suggestion: write down what you eat and when you acid reflux. Maybe there is a connection. If you are eating spicy foods, that could be it, or something else. If this persists, take some TUMS or any other antacid to control it and see your doctor.
Hope this helps!

The reflux stopped after I stopped having dairy, it isn't an issue anymore =D
