Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
It will be helpful if you upload your recent reports.
Following investigations may be helpful :-
1. Thyroid profile.
2. Serum Amylase and Lipase.
3. Liver Function Test(LFT).
4. Stool examination.
I would suggest that you can take an antacid like Omeprazole 40 mg along with a probiotic and digestive enzymes containing pepsin and fungal diastase.
Further medical management can be planned according to the reports of the above mentioned investigations.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
