Hey guys/Howard, As stated on another topic, I have Barrett's. I've taken pantaprozole (PPI) for about 3 months now and it seems to work. Previously, I was not on anything because I stopped without my doctors orders because I felt good. Stuipd mistake, i know. Anyhow, the acid reflux/burning sensation is gone, but on some days I still get a "hint" of burn (like right now). The symptomps are not completely gone, but it's definitely manageable. If I don't think about it, the symptoms are gone. If I think about it, I can feel the burning sensation. That's what I am talking about. Some nights it can flare up uncomfortably, but for the most part it's under control. Since I have Barrett's, do I need to be concerned about this or is it common to feel some burning sensation every other day or so? In other words, do the PPIs need to completely turn off the burning sensation for me to not be alarmed? If not, then at what point do I alarm the doctor? I'm going to talk to my doc, but I figured maybe Howard would know what I can expect to hear or do. Thanks![ Auf dieses Posting antworten ]
