hi dear,not to worry much regarding your problem.in my clinic i often come to see such cases of your age group.at first look it gives impression of hyperacidity with constipation.now come to the point,let me know your life style pattern.i mean dietry habbit. ,do you eat oily,fatty,spicy,tea,coffee,alcohol much. veg or nonveg.what about your physical exercise?walking,jogging etc.start taking simple veg, well cooked blend diet, take enough water, stop tea,coffee ,spicy food.as you mention you have taken HP treatment.it is not clear how long and what type of antacids etc. did your doctor tried proton pump inhibitors , omeprazole,rabeprazole etc.if all these have been tried without response then you must go for upper g i endoscopy to rule out peptic ulcer, GERD or any other possibility. better to consult a gastroenterologist he may rule out the cause. don,t fear, endoscopy is a painless procedure and you will not require hosp admission. have a good luck. consult me later with your reports.
