Hello, I am sorry to hear that you are not feeling so well.
Reading about your symptoms the most common differential diagnosis would be GERD or Gastro esophageal reflux disease. It is basically reflux of the acidic content of the stomach into your food pipe or oesophagus that causes all these problems . And to confirm the diagnosis I suggest you to meet a gi specialist after the covid situation settles down who will then do an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis.
Till then try avoiding alcohol, citrus juice, tomato based products and coffee. After meals take a walk inside your premises and wait for 2-3 hours and then lie down.
Keep an extra pillow to elevate your head while sleeping . Also stop taking omeprazole and start talking tablet esomeprazole/nexpro rd/nexpro. Have 1tsp of syrup sucralfate 30 minutes before taking esomeprazole.
Investigations to be done:
Endoscopy
Urea breath test
Tab esomeprazole -domperidone
Syrup sucralfate
