Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
No, this is not food poisoning.
These symptoms are due to worsening of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).
In my opinion, you should follow these steps for better symptomatic relief till surgery.
1. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
2. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
3. Start pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily.
4. Go for walking after meals. Loose weight if you are obese.
5. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
