One of the most important questions in “refractory GERD”:
Is it actually GERD?
Excellent pearls from @kia_leila on the pseudo-GERD trap:
🔹 Reflux hypersensitivity ≠ functional heartburn
🔹 Rumination can often be diagnosed from the history
🔹 Postprandial HRIM can confirm the physiology
🔹 Treatment may be behavioral—not another escalation of acid suppression
Phenotype first. Treat the mechanism.

Do you use European, SRU, or individualized approach?
When consider extended cholecystectomy?
