What Causes Burning Sensation In The Throat While Having GERD?

GERD
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I can understand your concern for GI symptoms.
1) You might have GERD of severe variety in which stomach contents reflux back into esophagus upto mouth. This happen due to weak junction of esophagus to stomach.
2) Ideally, you should have repeat endoscopy to rule out a) GERD, b) hiatal hernia, c) gastritis and esophagitis, d) barrett's esophagus.
3) If endoscopy would come normal then you must do invasive 24 hour esophageal Ph monitoring test which is the gold standard test for GERD.
4) Iron supplementation does not flare up your GI symptoms, in fact severe gastritis related less absorption of iron from diet might be reason for iron deficiency in your case.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any further query, I would be happy to help you.
Have a good day!
