GERD and upper stomach discomfort

2020-06-17 08:57:44
Hi I did endoscopy 2 times, my doctor told I am having GERD problem, suggested a course of few tablets, but i did not find solution. The problems iam facing is: 1.Upper stomach discomfort feels like am carrying stomach. 2. Burps never comes even if i eat full stomach. 3. If i talk i will get tieredness. 4. Unable to relax by taking deep breath..i can take deep breath, my chest expands fully  but stomach musles dont give relief. 5. Sometimes i also feels throat tightness I searched in internet and found FUNDOPLICATION is there for treating GERD. So...plz plz plz suggest me...do i need that surgery or can i get cure by tablets. Am very scared.

You need to share endoscopy video, along with pH and manometry study, before surgery is done. In the interim you should continue to take PPI and prokinetics as advised by your gastroenterologist.
