Hello, Thanks for the query.
The symptoms described are very much similar to hyperacidity or acid peptic disorder. Since you are on Omeprazole for the same, it appears the drug is not fully effective. You will have to look at following things :
1)Take timely food, avoid spicy foods.
2)Refrain from smoking and alcoholic drinks as well as aerated sweetened drinks (colas).
3)For a few days take bland diet.
Plus there may be a need for getting an endoscopy done to see if there is peptic ulcer. Thanks
