As for your gastric difficulty you should have an antacid, and it is unlikely that your abdominal problem is causing the nasal problems. These following steps may help with your gastric difficulty:
- Don't skip meals, you may not feel like eating but in such conditions you should have the reduced amount in frequent intervals(i.e. 3 square meals broken down to 5 or 6 as you can tolerate) and slowly increase as you get better.
