Does Hiatal Hernia Cause GERD Symptoms?

Hi do not worry
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM
Thank you for your query
I understand your concern
Possibly you have a sensitive stomach and some reflux disease
Worthwhile getting an endoscopy done if not done earlier to look for hiatus hernia and any ulcerations in food pipe and stomach.
In addition try following things and see how you feel
Avoid stress
Avoid alcohol and smoking if any
Eat on time
Sleep at least 8hours a day
Ensure an discipline in your life style
Avoid sleeping two hours after meals
Don't take too much water during meals can take it one hour after meals
Can continue medications as you are taking
Sometimes your Gastroenterologist may prescribe you some medication to reduce the sensitivity of your stomach
All this will help you in long run.
Wish you a speedy recovery
Happy to help
