Is this an ulcer?

Hi, I am experiencing some weird symptoms and maybe someone knows or has gone through the same.

A month ago, I got intermittent stomach cramps that came and went for 3 days. I was also bloated the first day. When I ate something, I could feel a cramp while swallowing food or water. I was also retching and felt nauseous, probably because I didn't eat much for those three days. I got better after the 4th of 5th day and didn't think about it again.

However, a week ago I started retching for no apparent reason and I lost my appetite as well. I stopped retching randomly after 2-3 days but my loss of appetite goes on for a week now. Some days I eat more than others, and sometimes I feel nauseous I believe due to not eating enough. The thing is that this time I am not experiencing any kind of pain.

Could this be an ulcer or maybe H. Pylori?
