I'm dealing with a lot of hyper acidity, and I've noticed I occasionally get palpitations. All my tests like blood work, ECG, and Echo are normal, but these palpitations have me worried. Is it possible that my acid reflux is causing these palpitations?

I'm really concerned about my father-in-law, Mr. Sukesh Das, who's 61. He's been diagnosed with erosive antral gastritis after his recent endoscopy.

What exactly is erosive antral gastritis, and is it something we should be really worried about?
