Hi,
I think you can get an endoscopy to rule out any thing serious in your stomach.
Apart from that please ask your doctor to prescribe an antiemetic/ prokinetic drug along with a proton pump inhibitor. Please take these medicines 30 minutes before food as directed by your doctor.
At the same time please take regular small meals.
Hope this helps.
