Detailed Answer:
HI
Thank you asking HCM.
You are saying that you get up early in the morning with empty stomach, and this symptom is indicative for gastritis or stomach ulcer plus GERD
( gastro esophageal reflux disease).
So if I were your treating doctor I would recommend further exams like
- upper endoscopy
- abdominal ultrasound.
Still that you can start the treatment with PPI like omeprazole.
I strongly recommend to avoid alcohol , smoking , spicy foods.
Hope it is helpful.
If you have other concerns , I would be glad to assist you further.
