Burning pain going to my back quite sometime. I am on my feet 10 hours a day often without eating I do not drink alchol, I do smoke and have a tremendous amount of job stress. I have very inconsistent bowel habits, generally not regular, take a stool softner, or laxative. Sometimes when I eat it feels like the food does not digest it feels stuck, I have no appetite and have lost weight. Sometimes I feel so bloated with gas this is when it usually goes to my back.

Mostly due to Gastric Ulcer(as you've lost weight) from dietary and job stress and due to Constipation accompanied.
Hi Dear !! Thanks for your updates.
Impression-
On review of your updates, You seem to suffer from -Gastric Ulcer on post wall / or Duodenal Ulcer with post wall ulcer.
Other possibilities need to be ruled by Consults with Surgeon and Physician Team.
EGD and Proctoscopy could fix the cause of your burning pain under breast bone and would resolve it after proper treatment
Do's for your health issues-
Take regular bland diet
Avoid Alcohol,
Correct Constipation with high fiber diet and
Consultation with surgeon for piles / fissure in ano- and to plan further treatment with surgeon , if found in you, as this may cause Gastritis with Bloating from Constipation.
EGD (Esophago-Duodenoscopy),Proctoscopic examination with Surgeon to fix Gastritis with post wall ulcer ? or Duodenal ulcer with post ulcer.
Get Stool -Ova / Cyst test and treat any protozoal -amebiasis / giardiasis causing these complaints with you.
Test Stool -HpSAg(for H.Pylorie Stool Antigen) with UBT(Urea Breath TEst) to rule out H pylorie accompanied with others to cause Peptic Ulcer.
Bland / non spicy diet
Less of tea/ coffee / tobacco.
Plenty of fluids and 8 hrs sleep to reduce Colonic /Constipatory stress.
Proton Pump Inhibitors-Tab Panot D-1 x 2-4 weeks to control Peptic Ulcer.
Tab Ciplox D-1 x 2 times /day x 10 days.
Tab Vit B12 and Tab Folic acid- to stabilize -Gastric and enteric mucosa and early recoupement and healing of mucosal ulcers.
Hope this would resolve your health issues in 2-4 weeks time, but would need meticulous care of diet and job work style by repeat checks with Surgeon /Physician for 6 mths time,for long remissions from these complaints.
