Suggest Remedy For Acidity And Heaviness In Chest

Hi, Few days back I started feeling bloated stomach and sometime I get acid in stomach for certain type of food but it was worse. So I got tested for H pylori bacteria and result was 0.9. Anyway I started taking Omeperazole 20mg pills for past 15 days. I am getting any acid problem but my chest is still heavy in the middle and I would like to get a complete body check up. I am 34 years old and for past few years not much activities no exercises, sitting in front of the computer for longer time and also driving long hours.
