Possibly PepticUlcer: Ur symptoms r suggestive of Gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining) or Peptic Ulcer (ulceration of the stomach or early intestinal lining). I suggest seeing ur clinican ASAP, so they can examine u, possibly order tests, and treat ur condition appropriately. U can try OTC pepcid, zantac, (ranitidine) or prilosec, along with mylanta/tums until u see them. Stop alcohol, smoking, NSAIDs, caffeine for now
