My doctor said I have an incompetent lower esophageal sphincter and I'm really worried because my brother told me GERD is incurable. Is there any way to heal this without surgery? I'm feeling pretty down about it.

as symptoms are suggestive of gastritis and GERD (GASTRO ESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE ).Need to follow some lifestyle changes. Take food timely. Avoid cabbage, capsicum, citrus fruits ( for a while). Don't drink water with food, take after 40 min. as much as needed thereafter. Don't lie down immediately after food. Finish night meal by 8.30 pm maximum. Go to bed after minimum 1 hour after dinner. Always keep stomach 1/4 th empty.Divide meal into 5-6 times a day. Avoid the particular food, which is being observed to cause bloating, fullness, upper abdominal pain/ discomfort, reflux symptoms etc. A good acid blocker is needed to check excess acid production.
