General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Many a time this type of gastric problem can be found in coronary heart disease or coronary insufficiency.
Go for EKG and cardiac enzyme test to rule out any cardiac ailment.
If all reports are normal then take Omeprazole type of medicine for few days.
Avoid fried, chillies and junk food.
Ok and take care.
