Hello,

As per my surgical experience, the issue will not be solved by going for second opinion gastroscopy, but you require.

An expert physician who can evaluate your history in details, find out the root cause of gastric upset (which in many cases stress related) and cure you in accordance only rather than depending upon the scopes for diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
