It's often just a benign inflammatory response or can be an autoimmune issue. Did they do blood tests for parietal cell and intrinsic factor antibodies too?
Nexium is also a powerful anti-inflammatory so could clear things up and is safe to use for the majority of people. Best practice is to do a pH manometry test to see if excess stomach acid is the problem but is seldom done by doctors, they just try you meds instead. Personally, I'd start with safer still option of a H2 blocker first, something like ranitidine and they also have anti-inflammatory properties.
Thank you for the information, I really appreciate.
No, they did not do blood tests for parietal cell and intrinsic factor antibodies. pH Manometry test was not mention at all. I really don't think they are as knowledgeable as you. I will be getting the Coeliac result soon, I'm definitely going to ask about these.
Great info, many thanks again. One last question @kangaSue, is it normal to have so much nausea for benign inflammation of stomach? I wake up with severe nausea at early hours in the mornings since. I have no appetite, absolutely none.
