Endoscopy results are in

Mild erosive duodenitis

Stomach was normal and so was the oesophagus

For context I’m not in any PPIs or H2 blockers.

I’ve been prescribed 20mg of famotodine as I don’t seem to get on well with PPIs as I previously did.

I also have celiac and I am currently ruling out gluten exposure from my house although I an STRICTLY GF.

This is the second flare I’ve ever had and I must say it’s got considerably better over the last 8 months.

I’ve been eating bland taken out dairy live in herbal teas like ginger chamomile and liquorice. I’ve tried slippery elm don’t think it did much I made bone broth weekly and have a mug a day.

Basically they want me to go on famotodine now I haven’t yet tried a H2 blocker but I don’t get burning now unless I eat something my stomach doesn’t agree with or I just have a random shitty day with it like once every 2 weeks for a few moments and then it’s gone.

I try and reintroduce stuff and my stomach at this moment sometimes says get fucked but again still not as bad as it was 8 months ago.

I’m now fighting with myself as to whether or not I need to take the H2 blocker they’ve told me to take it for 2 months. But when I took the PPI of the lansoprezole 15mg I felt as if I had a brick in my stomach. It took 12 weeks for me to get back to normal I was only on them once a day for 6 weeks and felt better coming off them. My question is what would you do?
