hernia w/GERD last July. Anyways, I explained all my symptoms to him and told me that severe GERD could possibly be causing all my problems. I now have to have a 24 hour pH monitoring test done (5/6) and a repeat endoscopy (5/27) to see if acid really is causing all of my problems. When I had my last endo done he told me I had esophageal
hernia/GERD? What exactly will the pH monitoring test show? Can these 2 tests confirm/deny esophageal spasms? I mentioned doing a barium swallow and he recommended repeating the endo and the pH test. I go back to him 6/10. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
