What is Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)?

A condition where stomach acid flows back up the esophagus (food pipe). It can be caused or worsened by obesity, alcohol, and caffeine. Eating habits also play a role - eating large meals quickly or lying down after meals are known triggers.

Diagnostic Questions for Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Have you been treated for H. pylori infection?
  • Do you feel bloated after meals?
  • Do you have discomfort in the upper abdomen, like an upset tummy?
  • Do you have acid reflux or throat burning?
  • Are you experiencing heartburn?

Treatment of Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)

Treatment starts with lifestyle changes like eating smaller meals and taking a walk after heavy meals. Medications to reduce stomach acid or speed up digestion may be helpful. In severe cases, patients can undergo procedures or surgery.

Female, 40s

I was actually very impressed with the results it provided because, although I didn’t mention it during the questionnaire because I thought it was unrelated, it suggested I may have something I’ve actually been diagnosed with in the past.
