Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Do you have acidic belching/ abdominal discomfort/ gargling sound in abdomen/ abdominal bloating after taking meals?
Do you have fever/ spasmodic abdominal pain?
With the available describes symptoms, there could be possibility of peptic ulcer disease or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
Presence of gargling sounds with constipation favors the diagnosis.
You should consult with internal medicine specialist/ gastroenterologist and should go for thorough check up.
You should also go for complete blood count, Ultrasound imaging abdomen, thyroid profile, blood sugar, x ray abdomen and serum electrolytes.
Meanwhile, you should take proton pump inhibitors along with prokinetics for relief of your symptoms.
You should also take rifaximin along with probiotics.
Avoid oily and spicy food, tomatoes, citrus fruits, excessive tea & coffee, chocolates.
Take soft diet along with yogurt.
Take care,
Dr. Mayank Bhargava

It is presumed that your's age might be around 50 yrs so according to this age you have to note few things.
Anxiety neurosis is the main cause of this type of problem.

3 Indigestion, over feeding , fried food , cereals , pulses, high protein diet, sedentary life , lack of exercises , these are other reasons.
