Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Retrosternal burning relieved immediately on drinking water and recurring immediately thereafter indicate that you have severe form of esophagitis.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Take a PPI like Omeprazole.
Antacid every three ours.
Domperidone as anti-reflux measure.
Small frequent meals of soft bland diet.
Control of anxiety and/or stress is very important.
Get an upper GI Endoscopy to know the exact cause so that any additional medical or surgical cause can be found out and treated accordingly.
