I think you have figured it out. Fish oil on an empty stomach should give you rancid fish burps. If you don't get those, your stomach isn't acid enough.
Get some betaine hydrochloride. This time, not trimethylglycine freebase. The hydrochloride salt. Take as directed on the bottle, but the maximum suggested dose.
And bromelain. Pineapple enzymes that cleave proteins. Without sufficient acid, your own stomach enzymes can't work. Your stomach secretes pepsinogen, not pepsin. Without acid, it can't even start working. That's how your stomach won't digest itself. The enzymes only work in a highly acid environment.
Get some hydrolyzed protein. Whey protein, I would suggest, unless you are sensitive to dairy. Make sure it's hydrolyzed, not just whey powder. Your body cannot absorb proteins properly, because of the lack of acid. Hydrolyzed whey protein is pre-digested.
You may start feeling better right away, with these changes. I pray it is so.
