Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain in case if you have a history of acid reflux then the symptoms of burning and sick stomach seems to be due to acid reflux only and if the symptoms are severe then only papaya tablets will not work and you need to take Proton pump inhibitors like Omeprazole or Pantoprazole, antacids like Milk of magnesia, avoid spicy food, drink plenty of water, take light meals and take more of probiotics like Yoghurt in diet..
In case of no improvement in a 3 to 4 days consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
