Hi,
Heart problems can sometimes mimic heartburn (gastritis). So in your condition, you should also rule out any possible cardiac related abnormality.
I will recommend you to get a 2D Echo and 24hr Holter(continuous ECG monitoring for 24hrs). If both are normal then you are fine from a cardiac point. Continue taking Kabidex as prescribed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
