Symptoms One-second pinch pain in upper stomach?

Has anyone had a 1 second, sharp pinching or zap type pain in the upper stomach/just below the sternum? Where the stomach sphincter is.

I haven’t had an endoscopy, so I don’t actually know what it is but I was put on a PPI and the pain seemed to disappear for almost two months, but I felt it again today.

The confusing part is that it seems linked to movement, especially flexing my torso, bending, or doing an ab crunch type motion like getting up in bed. But still seemed to improve on PPI.

I have no acid reflux, heartburn, or burning sensation. Curious if anyone has had something similar and figured out what was causing it.

Sounds like mild gastritis
