Most patients with COVID-19 present with a fever and respiratory symptoms, however, I found some articles in the Chinese literature that presented early on with abdominal pain as well as loose stools or diarrhea and some fever who were diagnosed with COVID-19 and did worse as others because they presented to the hospital later.
I would like to signal out that there are many causes for abdominal discomfort/pain especially in times of stress, hence, I do not want most people to think that if they have some abdominal discomfort or pain, they should not jump and conclude that they have COVID-19 related illness.

Acid reflux problems can be caused by different factors. I would need to know a lot more about you to try to understand and explain the reasons for you having reflux. An explanation for many people with reflux is that the acid that is made in their stomach(an normal event) migrates to the esophagus which is more sensitive to eh presence of acid. This is because they have a weak barrier between the esophagus and stomach. This valve is called the lower esophageal sphincter. Also factors such as diet, smoking, drinking and obesity can make this problem worse, that is why I said I need more information to tailor this answer to your specific case.
