Gastric Reflux Symptoms Since 2022
I have been having intermittent gastric/reflux-related symptoms since 2022, which used to come and go and settle on their own. I have been taking Pantop-D regularly since 2022. I had an Upper GI endoscopy in 2023. I was diagnosed with Portal Vein Thrombosis (PVT) with cavernomatous transformation in June 2025, for which CECT abdomen and Doppler follow-ups were done. In May 2026, I had 3 USG examinations, all of which were normal except for the known PVT with cavernoma. My LFT and KFT were also normal in May 2026. On 1 July 2026, my symptoms started again after I had been eating food outside home. This time the symptoms have been more persistent, including acidity/reflux, burping, bloating, throat irritation/globus sensation and occasional discomfort while swallowing. I am very disturbed and worried. Does this look more like another gastritis/acid-reflux flare-up, or could something serious be going on? Do I need anything to be evaluated urgently? I am particularly worried Barrett es

Have u got another CT scan after this June 2025 report. An ultrasound would not give us a definite answer. A contrast CT or a liver-specific CT scan would give us a better idea about your portal vein and the collaterals, along with the repeat upper GI endoscopy.
Next Steps
This probably looks like another gastritis but a consult with Gastro entomologist would be a better choice
