It can be a miserable condition that impacts your quality of life. It happens when the muscle at the bottom of the oesophagus fails to prevent the contents of your stomach from leaking up into the oesophagus. Sometimes it can be caused by a hiatus hernia that causes your stomach to bulge into your chest.<\/p>\n<p>Surgical correction of reflux involves first repairing the diaphragm if a hernia is part of the problem. Then a procedure known as fundoplication is performed to help prevent stomach acid from flowing up from the stomach into the oesophagus.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/drsuzannema.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Anti-Reflux-Surgery.pdf\">-&gt; Download Anti-Reflux Surgery PDF<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/drsuzannema.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/General-Anaesthetic.pdf\"><strong>-&gt; Download General Anaesthetic PDF<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#c4c4c4&#8243; show_divider=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.98&#8243;][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.98&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;20px|||&#8221;][et_pb_column_inner type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; saved_specialty_column_type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.47&#8243; box_shadow_position=&#8221;outer&#8221; parallax=&#8221;off&#8221; parallax_method=&#8221;on&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.98&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4>Body Mass Index (BMI): A Quick Calculator<\/h4>\n<p>If your BMI is 30 \u2013 39.9, you are considered to be obese; 40 \u2013 49.9 is morbidly obese, and 50+ is super obese.
