General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

If the disease is confirmed, chemotherapy is the treatment of choice and surgical intervention is not required. Consult a gastroenterologist and get evaluated.

Bloating and dyspeptic symptoms can be managed with antacids like Omeprazole or Pantoprazole.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
