Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that your symptoms might be due to gastritis.
You can take an antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals along with Domperidone 30mg and a probiotic.
You should avoid spicy and oily foods. Also avoid being empty stomach for long periods. Foods producing excessive gas should be avoided. Also drink lots of water daily.
An Endoscopy and
an ECG will help in
planning further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
