With fungus, esophageal ulcer, antrum, can surgery treat gastric reflux?

Ask
I am 36 years old, female. I had endoscopy and had esophageal fungus, esophageal ulcer, antral inflammation. I often have a burning sensation in my chest, a feeling of hot coals in my chest, then hot flashes all over my face, neck and shoulders, especially when lying down. Eating is stuck in the neck. I had trouble sleeping at night because my chest and face were so hot that I couldn't sleep. The child is tired and weak. I took the medicine for 3 months but it didn't work. Symptoms also did not improve. My question is, can I have surgery to treat gastric reflux if I have a yeast infection, esophageal ulcer, an antral inflammation? Can all major hospitals do surgery? Thank you doctor for your advice.

Hello sister! Her medical problem, the doctor needs to examine more, review the existing test results, maybe perform some more tests, to have a clear advice.
You should register for an examination at the Department of Gastroenterology - Hospital of Vinmec Health System so that the doctor can advise you better. Indications for surgery or not surgery for gastroesophageal reflux disease, depending on many factors, the doctor must comprehensively evaluate the patient to be able to decide.
