Gastritis

I’ve had gastritis for many years. I’ve been on omeprazole for more than 30 years and have had a 2mm hiatal hernia for 40 years. Never in pain until a few months ago. I had an EGD in 2/21, showed the gastritis and 2mm hernia. After months of significant pain, I just repeated the EGD. Gastritis is worse, hiatal hernia now 5mm, and they found “multiple” polyps. The largest was a whopping 2cm. Not cancerous, thank the Lord, repeat EGD in 3 years. What? I’m smart enough to know this needs more aggressive treatment, but what?? I cook all my own food, eat pretty healthy. Definitely need to lose weight. Getting ready to purchase a bed that raises the head up. But what more should I be doing? And what could be causing this?

I had my first Gastritis attack last year. I had to take 40 mg of protonix in the am and pm for 1 month.
