Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is more likely.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.
1. Take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily.
2. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
3. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food.
4. Go for walking after meals.
5. Loose weight if you are obese. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits.
6. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
