Asked By:meenuf in New York, NY

Age 62 I've had rare acid reflux & a small Hiatal Hernia x 10yrs. NO BELCHING! I am 4 mons PO TT with Rectus plication. PO I had severe nausea but no vomiting for appox.1 wk. Since then to the present I am PLAUGED with FREQUENT belching which worsens after meals. There is visible distention in the upper abdominal area always which worsens after eating along with a feeling of excessive fullness. Was the Hiatal Hernia worsened by the plication? Would an endoscopy be reasonable next step?
