What Causes Burning Sensation In Stomach Despite Having Duodenal Ulcer?

If I was diagnosed with a duodenal ulcer years ago and it never really acted up within recent times but I am getting a burning sensation in my stomach is it my ulcer or is it heartburn.. Driving has stressed me out I am a new learner and this is how the burning in the stomach started.. I am really anxious when I am driving really tensed. The heartburn is not going away. Only if I take antacids it will ease but it comes back again. What can I do..

Hello
I had gone through your question and I can understand your concern
I see such patients in my clinic routinely and I will try to help you as well in best possible way

looking at your history this could be due to GERD, gastritis, hiatus hernia this could be related to stomach hyperacidity or acid reflux

in my opinion you should avoid fatty fried spicy and junk food or carbonated drinks
lead a stress free life just relax and enjoy your life
omeprazole group of drugs with antacids will definitely help you
if persists even after all this please consult a gastroenterologist for endoscopy or an scan study

Hope this addresses your question
