Gastroenterologist..: $0 y/o says Miserable with chronic gastropathy from bile reflux. tried every PPI, bile sequestrant, Carafate. very Bland diet. no help. is there a surgery for this? There is always a possibility it is something else. Best to see a Gastroenterologist/Hepatologist to make the appropriate Diagnosis and if medical Therapy is unsuccessful refer for Laprocsopic Surgery or some other appropriate surgery
