Brief Answer:
omeprazole. consult a physician

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I would suggest you take omeprazole and an antacid like gelusil both of which are available as over the counter medications.
You can try breathing in a closed paper bag as it can help. If symptoms persist I would advise you to consult your doctor.
You can consult a physician who can guide you whether a gastenterologist opinion is needed depending on what he finds on physical examination
