Hello,
Do continue to take Proton pump inhibitors (Peploc-40), it will help to reduce the amount of acid being produced in your body. Take home made food cooked in less oil without spices. Avoid oily, junk food. Take plenty of fruits & berries.
Since you have complain of chest pain, it could be due to acid reflux, indigestion or gastritis but sometimes it can be indicative of developing CAD(coronary artery disease). Get examined by a GP. Loss of balance during walking may be due to poor general health but it can be suggestive of Vertigo. Get your ears checked. You may need medicines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
