I've been having some issues with my appetite; I don't feel like eating much after just two chapatis. Also, I'm dealing with stomach pain and I'm quite underweight, only around 38 kg at 5'2". I feel tired all the time. I have a history of erosive gastritis with bleeding. Do you think taking Liv 52 could help increase my appetite?

I had an endoscopy done and attached the images. Can you suggest any medications to help tighten my LES? Is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can try first? I'm really worried about this and not sure what to do next.

I've noticed something strange with my stomach. When I'm sitting down, I can press on it and it feels completely normal, but as soon as I stand up, it feels a lot harder and I can't really press it in the same way. Is this something I should be worried about or is it normal?
