Dear Mercy,
The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to Acid Peptic Disease.
The burning nature of the pain when the stomach is empty (as you wake up in the morning) is characteristic for this.
Investigations like Sonogram or Upper GI endoscopy will be helpful in clinching the diagnosis.
Symptomatic relief can be obtained with intake of Pantoprazole preparation (to be taken twice a day before meals) & antacid gel (to be taken after meals).
They prevent formation of excess acid in the stomach & provide symptomatic relief.
And it is also needed that you take certain precautions regarding your diet & lifestyle, such as:
1. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods.
2. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration.
3. Avoid fast foods, carbonated drinks & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc.
4. Avoid smoking & alcohol.
5. Keep away stress, think positive.
If symptoms still persist, kindly consult a Gastroenterologist for proper clinical examination.
There is no need to worry, you will be fine.
Wishing a good health.
Take care
