Brief Answer:
gastric discomfort is responsible for your symptoms

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome
I have gone through your query.

Gastric discomfort and resultant gastroesophageal reflux, can be responsible for your present symptoms.
Initially we have to treat your gastric discomfort, and observe for any improvement.

I would suggest you few measures that will be beneficial.
Avoid spicy and oily food for few days till the symptoms are resolved. Avoid or reduce the intake of meat, dairy products, and add more fiber to your diet. Eat lots of salads, vegetables, fresh fruits.
Avoid excess consumption of tea/ coffee/ hydrogenated drinks. Avoid smoking and alcohol, if any.
Eat frequent small meals instead of heavy ones and do not starve. Take plenty of water.
Regular exercise is very much essential. Brisk walk every day for 30 minutes in the morning and then slowly increase the dura if time permits. Follow this measures your symptoms should reduce.
Take capsule omeprazole 20 mg once daily empty stomach, before breakfast for a week.

Try this measures for week , if this is not of much help then , I would suggest you to go for ultrasound abdomen to rule out other pathology like gall stones.

Hope this helps
Take care
