Hi,
First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, a fresh X-ray chest for gas shadows above diaphragm and ultrasound or CT chest and abdomen may be needed to rule out hiatal hernia. Surgical intervention may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
