How long does it take barretts esophagus to heal? i was told in a year my doc wouldn't be surprised if it was a normal egd. is it possible?

Yes: Yes it is possible if you treat your GERD and take your medicine every day your Barett's Esophagus can go into remission. However, remember that your GERD requires treatment. Discuss the possibility of a Nissen fundoplication with your MD if medical treatment does not work well. Good luck and stay the course.
