How Can Stomach Acidity Be Tested?

I had stomach issue for a long time. How can you tell if you have too much acid or too little acid?
the doctor prescribed proton inhibitor in the past, but without any significant result. I am very sensitive to stress as well. Why doesn't the doctor consider the possibility of too little acid symptom?
