What Is The Treatment For Heartburn With A History Of Gastritis?

My question is I was diagnosed with Gastritis about 5 years ago. Since then after 2 treatments It has went away(Although It took some time) Over the years the bacteria never has returned, but the acid problems slowly seems to get worse and my diet has to become more strict to prevent less acid causing heartburn. I feel as though I have to take more and stronger medicine each year that goes by looking back. Now it has gotten to where I get flush on my ears, neck and face sometimes if the heartburn gets too bad. So taking more medicine now is a must. But my main concern is that I feel as though now If I do not eat every few hours that I get really weak and cold feeling that the only thing that makes it better is eating. I have ruled out the sugar and it is not low sugar levels which is the common assumption I know. I do believe my taking of heartburn medication, the heartburn itself and having issues for so long has lead to this problem of feeling this way. It has gotten to be very annoying to where I feel like I cant hardly do anything without making sure my stomach isn't empty. Do you have any answer why I could have these symptoms and how to stop feeling that way if I do not eat every few hours?
