Stomach issues: You may have GERD, but I suspect stomach pathology more. Gastritis(inflammation of the stomach lining) or gastric ulceration are possibilities in view of your poor appetite. The gastroscopy will be very helpful in ruling these stomach disorders in or out. In the meantime avoid alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, spicy and greasy foods. Your gastroenterologist will guide and advise you.
