abdominal pain left side just under rib cage and reflux

Dear sir/madam
I have recently been having pains on the left side of my stomach just under the rib cage.These pains normally come about after I have eaten or lying in bed. I feel full by just having a few bites and also feel like the food has not gone down and wants to come out. the pain feels like just that region is cramped up and sore.
I also suffer from heartburn some times severe discomfort when i get into bed with a reflux and bitter taste in my mouth, always waking me up during the night.
Please advice
Thanking you in advance

Remedy: About a year ago I started to eat one cup of yogurt a day (with fruit) every morning and I noticed the pain in my side went away. I then stopped eating yogurt in the morning for breakfast and the pain start up again but I ignored it.
then last week I annoyed my side was hurting me (even though I got used to it) and I remembered about my yogurt diet. I started to eat yogurt again every day this week and again the pain in my side went away again, it's almost down to nothing. I haven't had a pain all week!
The yogurt helped. Don't technically don't know why since I'm not a doctor (I'm a programmer) and I don't need to know, I just want to stop being in pain every day so I'm passing on my discovery.
A yogurt a day keeps the pain in my side away.
