Throat Having Lots Of Saliva, On And Off Stomach Bloating, Excess Gas, Fever. Prolesec Didn't Help. Reason?

I am a 69 year old female, good weight, eat right, exercise, on No meds. and have no medical conditions, except:
1) Always had a problem with having to clear my throat. It looks like lots of saliva (clear), but lately this comes
up right after I eat.
2) I have had stomach bloating off and on for many years, and sometimes excess gas. But, for the past 4 or 5
months, my stomach is extremely bloated after eating, and sometimes I feel a slight upset stomach, no burning,
no specific pains. The main things that is driving me mad is that I get a feeling of being very hot - like a low grade fever,
but no temp. This can happen 3 or 4 times/day and I feel rather weak when it happens Could my stomach upset feeling and overall heat be a result of this muscus dropping down from my throat? Prolesec (antacid doesn't help).

ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hi mam,
I have gone through your query.
It suggests that you may be suffering from the GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease).
You are no on the right treatment (Only on the omeprazole need to add domperidon in your treatment).
For your kind information I am giving some lifestyle and home remedies such as----
1. Maintain a healthy weight if you are overweight.
2. Avoid tight-fitting clothing.
3. Avoid foods and drinks that trigger heartburn-Common triggers such as fatty or fried foods, tomato sauce, alcohol, chocolate, mint, garlic, onion, and caffeine.
4. Eat smaller meals.
5. Don’t lie down after a meal-3 hours after meal.
6. Elevate the head of your bed.
If you have any doubt, I will be available for your query.

Wish you good health
