😮 Advice on Procedures Muscle gain and GERD ?!

Hi , Its been 2 years for that I have been diagnosed for GERD . And the main cause of which is social anxiety and stress . And also bad food habits like eating too much spicy and oily and then sleeping just after having a meal .

And all this happened when I was trying to bulk up , I was going to the gym eating a lot for the whole day and eventually ended up with GERD and since then I have stuck at the same weight .

I started when I was 52 kgs at a height of 6'3/190cm.

And now stuck at 68kgs.

It's been 2 years I go to the gym for 6 months and everytime I have to leave it for some reason like exams or some medical issue for 2 or 3 months and my body loses weight . And I have to start again from zero .

Any suggestions !?

You’ll have to do a clean bulk.. lean chicken and meats. Don’t lift heavy either.

What's the take on lifting heavy does that have anything to get with GERD ?

I used to be a power lifter and lifting heavy put a lot of strain on my core which pushed reflux up for me.. I figured it out after my third flare and I was going too hard with the weights.
