burning, c/p blood: Could be severe GERD /gastritis with or without H pylori. Famotadine may help as would omeprazole ( you CAN take both) The specks of blood are from gastritis. You will need to go to a doctor to be tested for H pylori which is treated with antibiotics. Or may be gallbladder ( less likely to have blood) May also rarely be clot in lungs with severe back/ chest pain. F/U today w/ ER/ urgent care/MD.
