I'm dealing with some pretty bad abdominal pain, and my doctor suggested an endoscopy. Turns out, I've got a patulous GE junction, and he mentioned that I should lose some weight. I'm really worried. Is this something I need to be seriously concerned about? I've been on medication for a few days now, but the pain's still there. What should I do next?

I'm experiencing something concerning when I eat. After meals, I tend to get heartburn, feel nauseous, and have gas issues. Could you tell me if it's safe to take bifilac and sodium bicarbonate capsules for this?
When you experience heartburn, vomiting, and gas problems after eating, it may indicate acid reflux or indigestion. Bifilac capsules can help in regulating your gut flora and sodium bicarbonate can help in neutralizing stomach acid. You can take Bifilac capsules (containing probiotics) one capsule twice a day after meals and Sodium Bicarbonate capsules (containing sodium bicarbonate) one capsule after meals as needed. Make sure to drink plenty of water and avoid trigger foods that worsen your symptoms.
