Do i have acid reflux?

For about 3 weeks now i have been miserable, nauseous, no energy, always tired, vomited(once), and just felt like crap. I never get a fever though. I went to the doctors and had some blood tests done, all came back fine. I was even tested for H pylori which i do not have. The first occurrence was at a motocross race, i was helping a buddy, didnt eat breakfast or lunch and finally at 5 p.m. had nachos and a red bull, 10 mins later was miserable for about 2 hours then felt fine. Later that week at school i felt horrible in the mornings, which seems to be the worst for me. I always get a burn in between my ribs high on my chest, probably 4 inchs down from my adams apple. I have no appetite at all either, and when i do eat it tends to make me feel better. When i drink soda it burns suppper bad. I also have been burping alot more than normal. Probably 4 times more than usual. So i picked up some Prilosec OTC today and started taking it to see if that helps. Do you guys think i have acid reflex or should i look another direction? Thanks for the help.

I just turned 18, 130lbs.

Re: Do i have acid reflux?

It sounds very much like acid reflux. In addition to staying on the Prilosec for a couple of weeks you should probably think about your diet a little more - limit caffeine, don't go all day without eating, don't eat right before you go to bed, and take it a little easy on the spicy foods.
