Lansoprazole ?
My GI consultant spoke to me about this as an alternative to esomeprazole. He said it was more effective , worked quicker and was less likely to interact with other medications If anyone has found this to be the case, please could you let me know, or either way. Currently I am finding that I need

QUICK TAPER; CRP RISING STEADILY; FLARING
As suspected, the very quick taper rheumy thought up (2.5 mg per week til I get to 10, then reducing 1 mg per month), has caused a flare and I'm in pre-PMR pain - almost). Currently at 12 mg but should be down to 9 by now, if I was to go with her guidelines. GP refuses to let me up the pred saying "it's

High dose esomeprazole for Hiatus hernia
So discussion with GP today before my GI Appointment tomorrow and she suggests that a high dose of esomeprazole 40mg twice a day for a couple of months might be appropriate. Has anyone had this dosage for a hiatus hernia and if so how effective might it likely to be ? It's not going to cure the

Rheumatology second opinion appointment
Hello everyone, so my husband had his second opinion with another NHS rheumatologist yesterday (same hospital), and I'd really appreciate people's thoughts on some of the things he said, as follows: 1) The pain, stiffness, heat and swelling across my husband's knuckles and proximal joints (both hands

Confused
Still not diagnosed was initially put on naproxen but still pain persisted , both doctor and I then assumed I had polymyalgia so he tried me on predisnolone which seemed to calm my symptoms a little but after taking bloods for a second time my results came bk clear ! So now I'm being put on Duloxetine

Is there a difference between Barrett’s tongue and barretts oesophagus ?
I have been trying to research this since my endoscopy showed “possible Barrett’s tongue” Biopsy has been taken to rule this out which I hope is a positive sign , but does anyone have experience of this term? I understand that it is associated with hiatal hernia although my reflux issues aren’t too

Update to anyone interested
Hello, still in pain and still struggling to get a correct diagnosis. My long awaited referral with a specialist Rheumatologist in Oxford lead to yet more insistence that I have fibromyalgia.

However, about 5 weeks ago I strained my back quite badly. Two telephone consultations with GP. At first, he prescribed
