Based on your symptoms of elevated temperature, increased pulse rate, and abdominal pain after meals, it is possible that you may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis or an underlying gastrointestinal issue. I recommend you to try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for a few weeks to see if it helps with your symptoms. Additionally, you can take an antispasmodic medication like Dicyclomine 10-20mg three times a day before meals to help with the abdominal pain. It is important to also avoid heavy meals, spicy foods, and caffeine which can exacerbate gastritis symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.
