Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX after reading her history, I would first suggest she takes a good Omeprazole(20 mg) plus Domperidone (10) containing preparation from any over the counter store twice a day half an hour before eating for three days. This is because I think all the symptoms are due to severe acidity. If there is no improvement, she should get her urine examined. Incidentally the cough is also related to her acidity and GERD--regards
