Suggest Remedies For Persistent Indigestion And Abdominal Discomfort
I have been experiencing strong indigestion over the last few months and today (after thanksgiving) I am feeling pain and indigestion but particularly at the top of my stomach where it connects to the tube that comes from my mouth. Kind of a burning sensation.

Hi
you will need to go on a two week trial of a proton pump inhibitor such as omeprazole. You will also have to test for h pylori infection, either on blood or via breath. If you do have the infection, you will need a course of antibiotics. if symptoms persist despite treatment, you will need to have an endoscopy done to see if there are any abnormalities inside.
