Indigestion, heartburn and unintentional weight loss

I've had constipation on and off since July. I have discomfort in my stomach but not pain per se. But what I suffer from most is indigestion/heartburn where I have some much gas it gets stuck to my chest and I am in excruciating pain. Dr prescribed Omeprazole, which didn't really touch it and now they have prescribe Lansaprozole, which has helped, with the heartburn etc. But I still burp alot, ie as soon as I eat or drink anything even water. But it started off with having a lot of gas the other way.

However, in between all this I have lost about 4 kg in a very short period of time. I'm not sure if it is that I am just eating less, because of fear of being in discomfort but I just don't feel hungry.

I do have an endoscopy and colonoscopy on Thursday and am wondering if anyone has had similar and it wasn't too serious?

I've had an ultrasound and they found a polyp in my uterus (which is being investigated separately), bloods all seemed normal (CA125 And liver were all fine).
