Brief Answer:
The pain is not due to an ulcer.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thank you for the query.
Your symptoms are not characteristic for an ulcer. So the endoscopy wont give the answer about present condition. In my opinion kidney infection seems very probable. There might be some acid reflux as an associating condition, but not the main reason of the pain.
So it would be good to do not wait with it. Please visit ER. Blood work, abdominal ultrasound and urine analysis should be done for sure.
Hope this helps. Feel free to ask further questions.
Regards.
