What Causes Pressure In Sternum Along With Indigestion And Burping?

Have been having pressure in my sternum. I had a stress test with an iv of medication and pictures which turned out fine, but I continue to have the pressure fullness and lots of indigestion burping, some relief after burping, and while eating. I take Prilosec 20 ml morning and night.

Hi,
As your cardiac tests are fine then this seems to be due to acid reflux.
Take omeprazole tablet for few days.
Avoid fried, chillies and junk food.
Avoid taking aerated drinks, alcohol if you are taking.
Ok and take care.
