We both have GERD and being young, the doctor was nervous. It affects my asthma a ton. Well, my scope went well, adn I have no damage! Hooray! I just ahve to take maalox when i have attacks, not a PPI every day at all! Yess!
However, Dh has a stricture(like extra semi sphincters) that is causing him grief when he swallows. He needs to take his PPI every day for a year and then have another scope.I think he'll be just fine-it's not a big problem. Hope he smartens up and eats more than once a day now. Skinny guy(apparently gcould lose 5 lbs-from where, I'm not sure...) and eats like crap.
Anyhow, one side note-maalox gives D...but hey, it'd all give me D or C, and I'd prefer the D.
