Hi everyone quick question. I am 8 weeks into being diagnosed with severe erosive oesophagitis. I went for camera because my CRP was up at 21 (has been for last 8 months) when it should be less than 5. I have done everything as instructed regarding meds and eating. Have lost 1st 8lb. And my latest blood test shows CRP almost normal at 7.7. Shouldn't this be a good sign? I have another camera next week and because I still have clearing throat issues some days I feel terrified that there will be no improvement. Maybe I am just a wimp. I'm just finding it hard to not be overcome by fear.

Hi no two cameras are the same. Have sedation both spray and other. Best to find out what is causing it and get treatment.
Good Luck
Debbie
