I've been dealing with GERD for 21 years and take pantoprazole DSR every morning. Even after lifestyle changes, I still get reflux. Would surgery be a permanent solution for this or are there other options I should consider?

While surgery, like Nissen fundoplication, can significantly improve or even eliminate GERD symptoms, it's not a guaranteed permanent cure and is typically considered a last resort after other treatments have failed. Other options, including medication adjustments, additional testing, and even exploring alternative therapies, should be considered before surgery.

I'm really worried because I've been having this left side stomach pain for nearly a year now, and it seems to be getting worse each day. What can I do about it?
Persistent stomach pain on the left side that's worsening over time may indicate an underlying condition such as gastritis, peptic ulcer, pancreatitis, or diverticulitis; consider consulting a gastroenterologist

I've been feeling really off since I ate at this remote place on Saturday. I woke up the next morning with diarrhea, fever, and just like my energy was drained. I can hardly stand or sit for long periods without feeling exhausted. The doctor gave me Unienzyme and NorflaxTZ with electrol, and while the fever's gone, the diarrhea is still hanging around. Is this normal? Should I be worried that it's not stopping? What can I do to feel better faster?
That could be food poisoning no need to worry,consume plenty of water stay hydrated,if its still continuing,you can take tab Redotil 100mg three times in a day.
