@yaduhyaduhsquawk , I had gastritis 2024 seen on endoscopy , after I had only been on the big 3 for 5 months. I was placed on protonix 2x day but this year have weaned myself off the protonix since I am eating better & already have osteoporosis (I don't want to worsen the osteoporosis with the protonix use). Hopefully you don't have gastritis, maybe see a gastronintestinal doctor for consult?
