Lanzaprozole and Omeprazole stopped working for me, so now on 20 mg twice daily Esomeprazole . Definite improvement but I am not symptom free ie mild nausea, salty taste in mouth on waking ( bile? ) and ocassional belching. Some of this I know may be due to what I east or drink. I wonder if bile salts do just as much damage as stomach acid? My segment has increased from a mere 0.5 cm to 3 cm and my next endoscopy is due on 19/1. Apparently size of segment doesn't correlate to any increased risk. I am currently Non Dysplaysia.
