A member asked:

History with h pylori, since been teated twice and negative for it. still after every endoscopy i have "minimal gastritis " but was not mentioned because my main issue is acid reflux. i read the report. does gastritis correlate with acid reflux?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gastritis: Gastritis, an inflammation of the stomach lining, is different from GERD, but may coexist. The same medications are effective for both. Try avoiding caffeine,alcohol and nicotine(if you smoke) although minimal gastritis is a nebulous diagnosis, in my opinion.
