A member asked:

Egd showed large bile in stomach,reactive gastropathy w/ focal intestinal metaplasia.abd pain.gi prescribed carfate & nexium. anything else needed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

EGD: Carfate and Nexium should help. Follow up with your GI doctor and see if there is need to treat for h.Pylori (EGD biopsy report can show that). GI doctor will let you know when EGD needs to be repeated. Good luck.
