Your HERD problems are not due to MVP. Unless you have a severe mitral prolapse and should have a severe mitral regurgitation, and you should have a stage at three or four congestive heart failure before you go for heart surgery. Surgery for the mitral valve is not to help your HERD. Treatment for HERD is not to eat 3 to 4 dollars before sleep and also not to eat a large mean but to eat small frequent meals it is very severe of you may take some proton inhibitors like Prilosec (OC) or Medium thank you
