Hello Sir/Madam
Thank you for posting your question on HCM.I'll defenitely help you.If you are having a stomach discomfort with bloating ,nausea or vomiting you may have a common gastric problem called dyspepsia or indigestion.
The reason for this is most commonly consuming large quantities of greasy or spicy food before bed(in your case).
This causes increased acid and enzyme production in the stomach in an attempt to digest the large quantity of food.The acid rich stomach contents may then regurgitate into the oesophagus causing heart burn.
So the treatment strategy is to give ample time for rhe stomach to empty the food while reducing the acid content in the stomach.
So my advice is to limit oral intake, take Tab.pantoprazole 40mg or a similar proton pump inhibitor plus an antacid.you can take tab.ranitidine 150mg or a similar H2 receptor blocker instead of pantoprazole.
Indigestion can also be a sign of other acute abdominal conditions ,so if your symptoms worsens consult a specialist.
Thank you
