That’s wonderful @marsha357 — did you have just one RFA? I’m scheduled for 7 to 9 total and I’ve had 4 so far.
I was also told by my doc that I would stay on prevacid forever so the Barrett’s won’t come back. The RFA gets rid of the Barrett’s segments but it doesn’t stop reflux.

What dose of Prilosec are you on. I was diagnosed with Barrett’s 4 months ago. No dysplasia. I was prescribed 40 mg of a ppi twice daily, sucralfate liquid 10 ml before meals and bedtime and baclofen 5mg 3 times during day and at bedtime. I am also taking vitamin D3 6000 and folate and other B vitamins.
