Hello,
The symptoms you describe may be caused by GERD/gastritis. I will advise you continue with your antacid and add a proton pump inhibitor like Pantoprazole. Then you see a gastrologist for examination and microscopic exam.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mbuomboh Veranso
