What surgeries and treatments are available to those suffering from the stony tart reflux disease?

I have this horrible vivacity changing disease. My stomach can't bring it anymore, and Prilosec OTC is starting to suck. It doesn't work like it used to.
I know that exercise relief, diet, etc.
I want to know more about what surgeries are available.What surgeries and treatments are available to those suffering from the stony tart reflux disease?
There is a procedure perform usually laproscopically called a Nissen Fundoplication.
It can any be a full or partial wrap.
It is not stomach stapling.
They take the top sector of the stomach called the fundus and wrap it around the bottom of the oesphagus call the cardiac sphincter and pull it tight.
This stops stomach bitter leaving your stomach and burning your oesphagus. It does what the sphincter is supposed to do.
It works extremely ably.
Recovery time varies but is usually around two weeks for laproscopic surgery.
Reflux is solitary deadly if it is severe and over a long term of time as it causes errosion of the inside layer of the oesphagus and can cause ulceration and cancer. But that is to say extreme.
Worrying will make it worse.
