I'm not a doctor and don't pretend to be but have you had a CT scan done? Could you possibly have a hernia? My doctor told me also that a fundoplication can come loose and reflux can occur again. Mayo Clinic I am told is the best but is so hard for many of us to get there. Do some research on other doctors. Don't be afraid to get another opinion. It took me getting several other opinions before I found the help I needed. Good luck to you.

Thank you,I’ve had a ctscan and upper GI workup..it all looked normal. But I’ve got a question. I took a very hard fall to the upper stomach under rib cage. It was on a muddy incline. So it was a upward motion. Both feet went out from under me. Could that have done something to the Fundoplication that doesn’t show up with the test they have done? Because my GERD started back not to long after that. I started doubling up on meds. But still no relief. And now I’m having acid induced asthma. That I’ve never had before. Sometimes I think I’m going to aspirate in my sleep and not wake up. I don’t know if I’m ever going to get a doctor to listen to me..so thought i wld get someone else’s opinion.
Thank you ☺️
The one doctor did upper GI and found I have a small hernia but it’s so small it doesn’t need to be fixed. But I wld like to fix it before it gets big. But I can’t seem to get my point across to the doc. Maybe it’s the way I go about it. They don’t like you to tell them how to do there job. But it is me that’s suffering. 😐
