A member asked:
A biopsy made to my stomach reflected this result: chronic inactive superficial focal erosive gastritis. what its mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means nothing ser: This is a twisted way of saying that there is nothing serious that the biopsy shows! the key word here is "inactive". If it was " active", then you would be told that you have mild gastritis. I would not worry about this biopsy report., . Of course your doctor who did the biopsy should be able to answer your questions and guide you further.!
