GERD and GERD-X

2025-07-01 14:22:54
I have GERD from 2 years. PPI did not work. In 24Hr PH monitoring my demester score was 18.8. esophagus manometry was normal. Mt doctor suggested me endoscopic procedure called GERD-X where two sutures were implanted. It's been 1 month but did not see any symptom relief (Heartburn and chest pain). Should I wait more time? Or should I consider other options like fundoplication??
