You need medical attention immediately.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I am sorry for your brother and your situation. I think you have to stop alcohol immediately and also under doctor`s supervision.
You should stop it immediately and you need to be evaluated by fibroscopy of stomach because gastroduodenal ulcer is suspected since you had black stools, melena, and heartburn.
Also, you need medical attention because stopping alcohol can raise blood pressure and since you are just suffering from hypertension it can go very high.
You should take drugs that lower blood pressure.
Sorry that you don't have insurance but you need medical attention immediately.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thnanks
