he might have small intestinal TB rather than stomach TB. Amoebiasis also involves small intestine/some part of large intestine. if he has taken medicines for both diseases in form of a Complete Course, he should be fine. u can go for an oral+iv contrast CT scan of him. Now, the diagnosis of a lax cardia can be confirmed by an upper GI endoscopy with manometry (if available). Lax cardia may cause acidity with reflux.
