Thanks for input. You told me what I was afraid to hear--that it won't fix a hiatal hernia. (I would've known that had I paid more attention in anatomy class)
So the cinch is not going to prevent my little hernia(couple cm)from becoming larger later. THEN WHAT? I would think then it'll be harder to fix. My cinch doctor says nothing about this, I guess he wants me to leave it(the hernia)ALONE.
As I told Buffy, my GERD isn't the painful type. So I won't go for cinch or any other procedure until I get to ask all the right questions.
