Complex: If you've had a Nissen fundiplication and history of pancreatitis you have several risk factors, and abdominal pain could have multiple causes. If you did not have a lengthy discussion and get your questions answered by your current gastroenterologist, then you should do that. If still confused, you may want to consider a second opinion

Get 2nd opinion: Your symptoms may have several potential different diagnoses. Further work up wi be important and perhaps with a new look with a second opinion would be wise based on what you have been told
