hi
Thank you asking HCM
With regards to your symptoms they may be related with gastritis, gastroenteritis, ulcer, dyspeptic syndrome.
Your doctor has suspected hyperacidity , gastritis so he has prescribed lanzoprazole.
If you have no improvement you need to be examined with abdominal ultrasound and upper endoscopy
wishing you fast recovery
