My question in general is that in early cirrhosis can any treatment/medicine be given to reduce scarring of liver or to prevent any complications from occurring before having any symptoms, i.e. when the patient feels healthy and has no symptoms (incidental diagnosis)?  Can complications, like esophageal varices, ascites, jaundice, liver cancer or hepatic encephalopathy, be prevented or delayed with meds when not yet happened?

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??
