Reflux Gastritis

['Abd Al-Maajid]

On January 19 this year I visited a gastroenterologist and after a painful endoscopy procedure He found that I have Reflux Gastritis and since then I am on medication. Nexpro 2 times a day and Enzox-Forte three times a day. I used to feel inflammation in the stomach lining. -spoiler-Naq oybbq va fgbby. orpnhfr vg'f orra oynpx va pbybe ng gvzrf.-spoiler-

Reflux Gastritis I assume is same as Chronic gastritis is associated with smoking and chronic alcoholism, but I never consumed alcohol and just smoked a few times. But it may also be caused by Bile entering into stomach from the duodenum, and this is the reason in my case. But in most cases it is caused by the bacterium Helicobacter, for which I had not been tested. So I dont know whether those creatures are dwelling in my stomach or not

This disorder has no definite symptoms but may be liable to gastric ulcers or gastric cancer, The doc said that I have no ulcers, So does that mean I may get gastric cancer in future?

Chronic acid reflux can lead to a change of the cells in the esophagus - known as Barrett's esophagus. Barrett's esophagus is linked with esophageal cancer. If you have chronic symptoms, you may want to consider further evaluation - an upper endoscopy would be the best test to see if you have Barrett's.

So, I have higher chances of getting esophageal or gastric cancer in future.

those aren't the reasons for your problems although they can exacerbate your problem..
if you're over weight I suggest you lose some weight, sometimes the problem goes away just by losing 10% of your body weight, not eating late at night and not sleeping right after eating.. the problem is at the juncture between your stomach and esophagus more mechanical than anything if you can visualize it.
Stick with your current therapy and Allah swt will grant you shifaa

GERD predisposes you to esophageal adenocarcinoma not gastric cancer. If the doctor suspected you had H. Pylori he would've tested you, it's a very simple breath analyzing test.

people can get intestinal lymphoma called 'Maltoma' that would respond to H-Pylori therapy.. anyway.. people always think cancer when they're 17.. give me a break.
common things are common, rare things are rare.. please stop writing me PMs about your alleged cancer symptoms.. you guys know who you're .. treatment is simple really.. just do as I recommended above for now.. don't eat before bed and don't lie down quickly after eating.. that should resolve the problem.. unless you've a hernia in which case I still recommend the same thing...

Anyways, guys, I am not concerned about my situation anymore. I am under medication for more 25 days.

He said that if the situation doesn't seem to improve he'll test for helicobacter...

For God's sake I am not 17 or so...

I had this a while back, I found exercising and chewing my food into really small pieces so that it goes down as virtually liquid helped me, also not eating before bed time helped. I all ways have to make sure my food is digested before I go to sleep otherwise I get chest pains when I lie down. I stop eating 2-3 hours before bed time now, as a result I noticed that I feel alot better when I wake up.
