I've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat all the time, and it's getting pretty uncomfortable, especially with this burning sensation that comes along with it. Could this be something serious, or is it just a minor irritation? What should I do about it?

I've had this stomach issue for 7 months where it feels like there's a constant knot in my upper stomach and throat. Did an endoscopy 5 months ago showing small hiatus hernia and some erosions. Tried multiple meds like rabeprazole, levosulpride, montilucast for months with no relief. One doctor now suggests surgery but I'm unsure. What could be causing this persistent discomfort and is surgery really needed?

upper GI endoscopy,urea breath test and USG is advised.RW with the report.

I've been having these concerning symptoms lately and I'm not sure what's going on. I was sleeping and suddenly woke up feeling dizzy, short of breath, and with some gas problems that caused a prickling pain in my chest. After that, I couldn't sleep and my body feels really weak, and the dizziness hasn't gone away. I looked it up on Google and came across GERD and acid reflux, which have similar symptoms. Could you help me figure out what this might be?
