I need a decent remedy one that is cheap aswell maybe there is a natural way to cure it?

Take a teaspoon of caraway seeds. Put into mouth. Chew. The seeds, not the spoon. Chewchewchewchewchewchewchew.

Oh god, it tastes horrible. - Yes I know. Chew.

I'll never get rid of the taste. It BURNS in my brain. - I know. Chew!

Chew for about 5 minutes. Then swallow. Yes, swallow, just do it. Stop acting like girl.

Excellent. Pull off your pants, mount the toilet and prepare to vacate.

To be honest, I am very much like OP, indigestion and heartburn(or maybe it's acid reflux?). I usually drink something cold and/or fizzy drinks which "cures" it for a few minutes and then it's back.

The rare times I get it, I eat burnt toast. You can even dip it in coffee to add flavor. Probably no butter. It worked for me each time.

The above is not BS, the carbon that is the "burnt" in burnt toast acts as a base to help neutralize the acid in your stomach and esophagus.

FYI,
TUMS are made from a type of chalk (a type of rock), which is also a base and helps to do the same.

When I was young and had an upset stomach, my grandfather would take ashes out of the wood stove and mix it in milk. Also worked.
