Found my problem, it lies with acids and low stomach acid. But can’t fix it.

I know I have low stomach acid, I cannot digest anything at all. I take betaine HCL and my bloating goes down significantly but it causes bad reflux. I take lemon juice, improves bloating but it puts me in this position; severe depression, TMJ, cold, like sweaty too. I thought it was because of some kind of acidosis maybe, so I took bicarb and it helped straight away. The problem is that this lowered my stomach acid even further and it seems it hasn’t come back since? I now have substituted bicarb for calcium and Vit d to buffer the acidosis.

I can’t digest anything if I don’t have stomach acid but I can’t increase it because it puts me into this acidosis like state. So I just run deficient on everything, I think I’m going to try histidine soon. Can anyone please help me with this?

You can try zinc + b1 + histidine + chlorides + b6 (active) for example, I'd start with lower dosages. It can help. Or Zinc + B1 + Chlorides only. I think those will help with lower stomach acid. It can hurt you too it's hard to give advice so just start low and see what happens.
