I wake up everyday burping and bloated with a sour taste in my mouth sometimes. I also have discomfort under left ribcage - some sort of contraction or movement. This has been there for 2 years. Doctor recommended endoscopy and biopsy for Hpylori... Which I'm a little sceptical, that without eliminating basics, why should I go for intrusive methods.
Please help me to decide and with way forward.

Looks like gastro esophageal reflux/ gastritis
It’s been there for 2 years and I am sure you would have tried antacids for some time
Next step in evaluation of your condition is UGI endoscopy
