GERD: Gastroesophageal reflux disease with erosive esophagitis. "Indigestion" as you describe with a enough esophageal irritation that symptoms continue after acid is gone. Look up "GERD precautions" on line and follow them closely. Unless there are contraindications start an over the counter proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole) daily for 2 weeks then gradually reduce.
