Who ordered your scope, and what are they recommending? Is there anything you can pin down that is working for you? I’m not much help to diagnose, rather just someone trying to hold it all together through my own process. 🙂 A scope my local GI did a few years back didn’t yield any information for me. When you say “inflammation” how are you defining that? I am thinking pinning down details of where you are at will help you make another step forward. IDK

My gp ordered my scope. My diagnosis was gastritis, bile reflux, hital hernia, gastric polyps, mild distal esophagitis.
I was on Omeprazole for years so after my scope I tried Pantoprazole with no effect, added pepcid, switched to Nexium and now on Prevacid. I worked with the surgeon and my gp.
Along with burning indigestion, I have frequent burping and hiccup fits that come out of nowhere. The surgeon said my h hernia was small and not concerned at the time.
Seems like symptoms can get a little better at times but it's not long till they rear their ugly head again!
