Indigestion : Commonly known as indigestion ! Will respond to an H2 antagonist such as Zantac or Tagamet. Not serious at all. Good Luck

Delayed peristalsis: Could try prilosec 20mg, twice a day. Reflux diet (online). If persists, see gastroenterologist for exam. possible barium swallow, double pH probe monitoring, esophageal manometry.
