Burning mouth syndrome – anyone else have this?

I really had no idea I was experiencing reflux. Years ago I did have reflux and since then I always slept with my upper body and head elevated and never had any symptoms of reflux. I did not realize there is a silent reflux. My recent test showed gastritis with hyperplasia which is pre-cancer and then the Barrett’s esophagus. Yes I understand Barrett’s can become cancer. Testing did not reveal Barrett’s currently having metaplasia ( precancer). I know I need follow-up with the Barrett’s.

No I did not have dark stools or volmiting. I just had burning mouth, tongue, and tooth never realizing the inflammation of the Barrett’s on the esophagus was causing the burning. I was totally surprised. I have been sleeping in recliner. The morning after my scope I slept in my recliner and I woke up with bad reflux feeling the crawl up my throat. I acknowledged that was reflux. Can’t really believe how much better I am. When I do get a little burning in my mouth like this morning I chewed a pepsid complete and within minutes the burning was gone.
