Hello @miliangy,
Hypertensive LES is a disorder of the lower sphincter of the esophagus. I've shared a link to an article from Mayo Clinic's website. Just click on the blue link for more specific information, https://mayoclinic.pure.elsevier.com/en/publications/hypertensive-lower-esophageal-sphincter-pressures-and-gastroesoph,
I am interested in knowing a bit more about your diagnosis. How was Hypertensive LES diagnosed? Were you having symptoms of reflux?

Hi! Thanks for replying. It was diagnosed through an esophageal manometry, I was having symptoms of GERD, I even had esophagitis for approximately 7 years and I was in medication for GERD for almost the same amount of time. After the diagnosis the doctor suggest to make a PH monitory and the results were normal. After all this happen I stop medication and going to the doctors, cause I wanted to take a break since I was not receiving any answers. Then COVID 19 started and all the clinics were closed but a few weeks ago symptoms started to come back again, sometimes worst than it use to be. I have an appointment in December 3 with my gastroenterologist, hope he give me some answers since I feel lost with this diagnosis.
