Hello,

LFT(Liver function test) is not mentioned. Splenomegaly may be due to portal hypertension. Gastro-oesophageal reflux disorder (GERD) with esophagitis is most likely.

If LFT is abnormal, one needs to look into the possibility of CAH(Chronic active hepatitis). Symptomatically Pantoprazole with sustained release Domperidone is advisable.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
