I had laparoscopic surgery a while back but still get morning nausea and a bloated stomach sometimes. I've been taking nexpro rd 40 on an empty stomach in the morning, acta pro 100 mg three times a day, folvite two tablets three times a day, and essogress l before dinner at 8 pm since March 2019. How much longer do I need to keep taking these meds?

it's highly recommended to speak with your doctor about the ongoing need for these medications, especially since you've been taking them for a long period. They can assess your individual situation, consider the benefits and risks of continuing the medications, and determine the best course of action for your specific needs.

I've had two endoscopies and my doctor diagnosed me with GERD. They prescribed some tablets, but I'm still struggling with symptoms like constant upper stomach discomfort, feeling like my stomach is always full, and hardly ever burping even after eating. Talking makes me tired, and I can't relax even when taking deep breaths my chest expands, but my stomach muscles stay tense. Sometimes my throat feels tight too. I read about fundoplication surgery for GERD do I really need it, or can tablets still help? I'm really worried about this.
It's understandable to be worried when your GERD symptoms persist despite medication. Fundoplication surgery, which involves wrapping the upper part of the stomach around the lower esophagus, can be an effective treatment option for persistent GERD symptoms. However, it's not always the first approach, and medication may still be sufficient for some. A thorough discussion with your doctor is crucial to determine the best course of action for your individual situation.
