I had my GI appointment yesterday. I was told I can start tapering off the 40 mg of Pantaprazole I take daily. I have no reflux or heartburn at all. I get my next EGD and Colonoscopy in Oct. The NP at his office told me yes, Barrett's can go away. I will find out in October.

What is your schedule for tapering off? I tried to taper off another PPI (Pantoprazole) by taking 1 pill every other day for two weeks and then stopping completely, according to my Dr's recommendation. I was off the meds for about 3 weeks when I started having stomach pains so I had to go back on the drug.
