Hello,
Thanks for your post.
Your symptoms suggest you are having GERD and peptic ulcer. It can change your bowel habits and cause discomfort in chest (heart burn) and abdomen (bloating). You are already taking medicine but it is not helping.
You should take large amount of water.
Adjust small and light deit.
Avoid spicy food, carbonated drinks, tea, coffee,smoking and alcohol.
Do not go to bed within 2 hours of taking meal.
You are advised to visit your doctor and get some tests, irritable bowel syndrome and celiac disease should be ruled out.
Hope it helps.
Take Care!
