I suffer from Bile Reflux, I do not respond to PPI's. My gastro does not want to perform surgery as no Barrett's exists, but my throat hurts daily and thats is taking 40 mg Aciphex daily. Should I consider Nissen Fundoplication? This is frustrating.

A member asked:

Why would my gastro doc discourage Nissen procedure when I have chronic gerd? I do not have Barrett's, but am concerned about that progression. I reflux constantly. Is aciphex (rabeprazole) enough to keep esophagus healed?

A member asked:

Had endoscopy done today. Dr said LA grade B reflux esophagitis, zline regular, 40 cm from incisors, erythematous mucosa in the antrum.Worried cancer

I have Eosinophilic esophagitis. Can this end up causing cancer as well, or does esophageal cancer only result from GERD and Acid Reflux.

A member asked:

Is it possible to have esophageal cancer 8 months after a egd that showed only mild chronic esophagitis cause by reflux?
