hello,
i can understand your concern.
i would advise a upper gi
endoscopy to know about the presence of any ulcers and conditions like
hiatus hernia which can be causing you the symptoms.
a change in the diet is strongly advised.
eat smaller quantities of food at short intervals rather than heavy meals.
avoid spicy foods, eat foods rich in fiber.
i would suggest tab pan 40 to be taken twice daily for two weeks. tab domstal 10mg to be taken three times a day.
this would help you in preventing the reflux.
an
antacid like mucaine gel is also advised thrice a day.
your doctor has rightly said that the
umbilical hernia is not related to this.
an antibiotic would also be prescribed if
rapid urease test done during endoscopy is positive.
hope i have answered your queries.
feel free to ask further queries
wish you a speedy recovery.
thanks for Choosing HCM
