Suggest Treatment For Heartburn In An Obese Person
I just woke up because vomit had risen into my mouth. It doesn t feel like I have heartburn, but I ve been slightly nauseous for a couple days and my appetite has gone down a little. I m a tad overweight at 250 and almost 6 ft. tall. I m experiencing a lot of stress during the past few weeks because we just put our house on the market.

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms could be related to gastroesophageal reflux or gastritis. For this reason, I recommend taking an anti-acid or PPI (omeprazole, pantoprazole). It is also important eating in small portions and avoid spicy food and coffee. If your symptoms persist, I recommend performing a fibrogastroscopy.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Wishing all the best,
