Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare magic!
You have not mentioned whether you are a diabetic or a hypothyroid.
You symptoms could be due to gastroparesis and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
A upper GI endoscopy and if needed a 24 hours pH monitoring and a gastric emptying scan may be done for evaluation.
Till then you can take prilosec and a prokinetic for relief.
