Some info which may be helpful to others with metaplasia. Acid suppression drugs should NOT be taken. Report from my gastroenterologist says that" diminished acid increases serum gastrin which then propagates metaplasia changes." So, sticking to liquid antacid.

wow! I'll have to ask my doctor about that. I've been on PPIs for years and am wondering what kind of roll they've played with my Metaplasia. I also have chronic gastritis and without PPIs I don't know how that would fare. If feels like a "darned if you do, darned if you don't" situation.
