Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Feeling fluttering in the abdomen after taking food for few hours and getting alright but then feeling hungry at the same time when fluttering reduces indicated that there may be a problem related to the stomach or initial that is proximal part of intestine.
I would advise you the following: • Get an opinion of a gastroenterologist. You need an upper GI endoscopy, barium studies, and further investigations. • Try to identify the foods and beverages that cause or enhance the problems and stop them altogether. • Take a PPI like Pantoprazole and antacids. • Get treated as per the cause found to get a cure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
