R-CPD and bile in stomach

Possibly unrelated but thought I’d ask if anyone had any similar issues…
I am 23 years old and I have not been diagnosed with r-cpd officially however I have all of the symptoms… not burping properly (I can slightly let air out but have to suck air in first) extreme bloating, throat gurgles, severe emetophobia. I have had, what I thought was, bad acid reflux constantly the last two ish months every single day regardless of what I eat. With my inability to burp, I have been in misery. I frequently regurgitate my food bending over slightly, my throat burns the second I sip water after just waking up, no matter what I eat the outcome is the same: extreme throat burning, stomach burning, nausea, extreme full feeling, and stomach pain. I have been taking Pepcid, omeprazole, pantonix, slippery elm, and pure aloe Vera juice. I also briefly tried taking apple cider vinegar on an empty stomach and before eating which helped but that was before it got really bad and I have not tried since out of fear of throwing up. I had an endoscopy done this week and they found bile in my stomach and it is actually bile reflux I’m dealing with (which explains why none of the medicines or foods I’m eating matter). My doctor said changing my diet now is pointless as it makes no difference now, he believes it’s my gallbladder. I don’t want my gallbladder removed if I can help it as I’ve heard lots of people experience similar issues as a result of getting it removed, which would not help me. I tried looking into homeopathic remedies out of curiosity and only found the apple juice cleanse, which I tried drinking all day yesterday. It did not burn my throat and actually let me eat an entire meal without feeling any burn the entire night!!! However, I got super sick in the night due to drinking too much (I believe) and now I’m not sure how effective it was.

I’m just wondering if anyone has had similar issues and if anyone has any recommendations, homeopathic or medical. Thank you!
