Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I think we are dealing with related problem.
The symptoms are suggestive of a possible acid reflux problem.
This happens when there is a loose valve between the stomach and the food pipe.
I would suggest taking omeprazole 20 mg once a day half hour before meal.
Avoid spicy food, alcohol, coffee and tea.
Prefer vegetarian diet.
Sleep with the head end of your bed slightly elevated.
I hope that the information helps you.
Best of luck.
