Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
The problem of acid feel, abdomen discomfort and loose motion may be due to dyspepsia only or it may be due to a hepatobiliary disorder.
You can take antacid treatment as required. It is not emergency but you should get evaluated by the physician. You can consult your physician tomorrow. I would advice ultrasound abdomen and liver function tests.
I hope this advise will be helpful to you. Let me know if you need clarifications.
Regards
