Hi guys , 

Had an endoscopy last week, I was diagnosed with an Esophageal ulcer that has a 5ml inflamed nodle, biopsies came back fine. A hiatus hernia and mild gastritis. The ulcer is due to the hiatus hernia. 

I had no painful symptoms , mild change of bowel movements for a couple of years. 

Doctors has put me on 80 mg omprezole a day, another endoscopy in 8 weeks. 

Doctor said it was a nasty nasty ulcer and he’s surprised I was in regular bad pain 

I was just wondering if anyone else has had something similar, and got their inflamed Esophageal ulcer under control? 

All this because of nasty iboprofean, I was so ingnorant !
