Gastritis: 28 year old lady with concerns about gastritis after prednisone treatment. The most important step is to visit your physician to get a full exam and rule out H. Pylori as cause of gastritis, then, if sx persist then a scope by GI doc is indicated. Limit consumption of alcohol or any foods that worsen your symptoms. You can add Pepto/Milk of Magnesia to see if it helps coat your stomach as well.
