HI
Thank for asking to HCM
These all symptoms are suggestive of reflux esophagitis, color of vomiting could be a food, (Meal) esophagitis symptoms are very similar to cardiac pain and some time mimic angina , in my opinion it has to be differentiate and for that ekg is the best mean, for better result of reflux disease you can try omeprazole 40 mg one tab. at evening time for six week.
