Brief Answer:
Did you take Tylenol/Motrin for the flu?

Detailed Answer:
Hi welcome to Health care magic,
Did you take Tylenol/Motrin for the flu?
They could have left residual acidity.
Try Omeprazole with Domperidone twice a day for three days and try to avoid pain killers.
Hopefully you will be better.
You can revert back.
