Time to see Dr.: Since you have tried the OTC meds and I assume are watching your diet, it is time to see the Dr. You may have worsening GERD, a Hiatal hernia, an ulcer issues, etc. Best wishes.

Need more info.: What sort of pain do you have? Is it sharp, achy, burning pressure or crampy? Does it change with movement or meals? Do you have nausea? Your problem may be in the stomach; but it may also involve pancreas, gallbladder, other bowel, or even other structures not in the digestive system. Do see your clinician who can develop for you a diagnostic and treatment plan. Hope that helps.
