Hello hope the answer helps you.As far Iam getting you are having trouble with burning pain with unexplained metallic taste of mouth,how about your weight are you obese and addiction of alchol and smoking as your symptoms are suggestive of GORD.You must avoid smoking,excess alchol and cofffee after food donot lie down immediately.And in sleeping slight head elevation will prevent burning to metallic taste along with spicy food abstenince.Also start Syp Gaviscon 10ml three times along with zantac or Gasec for regular 15 days hope it will help if not then be needing Gastro consult
