I've been dealing with some stomach discomfort lately and my doctor prescribed Sompraz D and Ulgel A syrup. Since I started taking them, I've noticed my stomach makes a lot of gurgling noises, especially when I'm lying down. Is this a normal side effect? Should I be worried?

I've been feeling like there's food stuck in my throat and it won't go down. My voice has gotten hoarse, and I've got this irritable bowel thing going on. My stomach hurts and feels like it's burning, and now I've started having pain in my lower back too. It's really uncomfortable and I'm starting to get pretty anxious about it. Any idea what could be going on?
