Had egd last year for sob sensation /gerd symptoms. all normal except grade 1 esophagitis in the gastro junction. ppi 7 weeks helped little. options.?

See a doctor: Mild to moderate esophagitis should improve with dietary, behavior modification and ppi in a week or two. If you have done what's recommended, it's time to see your doc again for more eval/ testing.
