One day I went and got a checkup done via Endoscopy recommended by doctor and the results came were LAX CARDIA, EROSIVE ESOPHAGITIS (LA-A) & ANTRAL EROSIVE GASTROPHY.
Doctor gave me few medicines colospa,nexpro,rcifax. However after eating for 15 days I do not feel that much relaxed and well. I sometime feels constipated too and have to go 5-6 times to get fresh.
