For the last three days I’ve been feeling these awful symptoms; excess salivation, nausea and loss of appetite.

It all started four days ago. I chugged a room temp water bottle in one shot. Felt discomfort in my upper middle abdomen instantly. Next day I went out for a mile walk and drank coffee. Which is my routine. I burped and felt as if acid went up my throat. Ever since I haven’t had any rest with these symptoms I listed. I’ve been taking nexium now for three days with no real relief. Any help is appreciated.
I’m freaking out thinking it’s something worse

Unfortunately, your symptoms likely won't disapper in 3 days. I would eliminate caeffine, spicy foods, alcohol, and stay on a bland diet. You can also take an O-T-C Pepcid at bedtime. If symptoms persist, you can contact your PCP.

Thank you for your response, do the symptoms I listed seem common for People diagnosed with GERD?

Your symptoms can be caused by a lot of different things. Anxiety is a possibility.

Don’t think it’s anxiety. I’ve suffered from anxiety in the past and have had it under control. These symptoms have gotten a bit better but still feel them

If you are still concerned, make an appointment with your PCP - that's the best way to find out what is going on, instead of guessing.
