Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Sorry to hear all you have been through
Your symptoms could be explained by the results of the EGD.Gastritis/gastroduodenal ulcers may give you chronic stomach pain.The first like treatment to this condition is not a surgery.Surgery is mostly indicated in complications like gastric perforation or pyloric stenosis caused by this condition.I will suggest you see your Doctor for an H pylori test.If positive, the initial management will start with H pylori eradication.You will however need anti-secretories like omeprazole, antacids like maalox.You may also avoid going for long without food, avoids peper and too spicy foods, avoid lying down immediately after meal.You may also see a Gastrologist to follow you up.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
