I have been suffering from GERD for approximately 10 years. My symptoms have been persistent and significantly affect my daily life.
I experience severe heartburn and a constant sensation of breathlessness, even with minimal physical activity such as walking or slight body movements. The breathing difficulty is one of my most concerning symptoms. I did endoscopy 4 times so far , did 24h ph test and esophageal Manometry as well my demeester score is 17 and Acid exposure time is 4.2% and Manometry is normal
I have tried multiple treatments over the years, including (PPIs, PCABs), and low-dose amitriptyline, but none have provided lasting or significant relief.
Despite ongoing treatment, my symptoms continue to worsen or remain unchanged, and my quality of life is severely impacted.
I would like to understand whether surgical options such as anti-reflux surgery could be effective in my case, and what evaluations or tests would be required to determine if I am a suitable candidate.

Hi
My last cycle was on 27th Feb. I have been having pressure like pain in the right side pubic area since yesterday. It's like coming and going and not constant.
Exactly below the lower abdomen. It hurts tender if I press. No swelling, fever or nausea.
Never had this pain before.
This pressure type pain hurts while walking, sitting, laying down, standing. It's like on the lower abdomen and below that. Marked on the image.
I have an ovarian cyst on the left side and nothing on this side. What could be causing this type of pressing pressure like pain in the right pubic area and lower abdomen right side?
I have a stress treadmill test tomorrow to evaluate my ankle swelling. I have had ankle swelling and stiffness since January. The rheumatologist said it's autoimmune arthritis. I have a high inflammation CRP and sediment rate.
They sent me to cardiology to check for cardiac issues, so they ordered treadmill test.
I have this pressure type pain right pubic area today. Is this hernia
Hello. I am 5'6". 77 kg.
I took flagyl 400, 3 days ago. I have been since suffering from loss of body odor and harder stools. I thought after passing 2 bowel movement drug will be out of my system and I will have no problem. But even after 2 round of bowel movement there is still no body odor . I took metronidazole 400 for 4 days and generic version flagyl 400 for 1 day since 1st one was not available. Body odor probably stopped after taking flagyl 400. Is this permanent?
