Heartburn? Acid reflux? - 8th June

Recently, last Friday actually I had a long duration of burning sensation in my stomach, it comes and go and the pain really makes me nauseous and sweaty. Went to check online and found that maybe I'm having an acid reflux or heartburn. It happens from the acid from the stomach flows into the esophagus, causing the acid to 'eat' away at the inner layer of the esophagus. Another possibility would be gastric...

Anyways, I took a medication called 'Zantac' which helps in reducing the acid produced in the stomach, thus, reducing the reflux or overflow. Had to stay away of chili and fried foods for a while.
