I've been dealing with gastric trouble for 4-5 years, but this time it's really bad. I get gas in my stomach no matter what I eat, like even if it's just papaya or any other food. Do you have any advice or solutions for this?

You are experiencing chronic gastric issues. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (brand name Gas-X) 125mg after meals to help relieve gas in your stomach. It is also important to avoid foods that trigger gas such as beans, cabbage, and carbonated drinks. Make sure to drink plenty of water and practice stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation.

I'm sometimes hit with sudden breathlessness, especially after a big meal when my stomach feels really full. This has been going on for around 34 months and I often get these acidic burps. I'm also on medication for panic attacks, taking Serta 100 mg at night. I've also noticed that I've gained weight and my stomach's grown because I haven't been very active. Could this be related to obesity?

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.
