The 39 cm from incisors just refers to how far the Z line is from your teeth. It’s just a measurement taken by the markings on the scope. Medication to reduce the acid production in stomach, like omeprazole, should clear up the mild gastritis and you should be fine.

Slkanowitz: thank you for your response and recommendation to take omeprazole. After some research I read that the finding of the z-line on an EGD is a normal finding. Since mine said Z-line was regular (meant it was normal)? And since I’m around 5’10” in height a 39 cm is normal? If I read it right it’s people with “irregular” z-line’s that could have Barrett’s Esophagus? Thanks again for your response, this was helpful.
