Endoscopy does not show any life threatening disease: it does show a “Hiatus hernia” can allow acid and food to regurgitate into food pipe and cause heartburn and acidity like symptoms: if you do suffer from these, then Hiatus hernia will need further tests and treatment: which is surgery to repair the incompetent valve at junction of food pipe and stomach: that’s done laparoscopic or robotic

Next Steps

Wait for the biopsy report and check with the doctor pre for severity of reflux or GERD if there then think of consulting a surgeon for repair of hiatus hernia

I have gone through your endoscopy and biopsy report. In chronic smoker hiatal hernia with symptoms of GERD is very common.with Hpylori kit positive. I think ,you should take 2 week course of h pylori regime. With you have to modify your life styles including quit or reduce smoking with body posture changes while sleeping and ofcourse you have to modify your diet along with course of atleast 4 week medication. As of now ,Nothing is serious, but you should quit smoking as it is a risk factor of many benign as well as malignant condition.

Next Steps

you should go for 2 to 3 weeks treatment. of ppi and antibiotics for h pylori.

Health Tips

do not eat before sleep . head end should be elevated while lying down. avoid spicy and fatty .increase protein intake. reduce your weight atleast 2 to 3 kgs.
