I was diagnosed with Barrett’s Esophagus well over 20 years ago, and have regularly had endoscopies. I’ve been on medication for acid reflux since the late 80’s, early 90’s. My gastroenterologist will do an endoscopy and colonoscopy together. I had both done last June. He said my Barrett’s is stable, and I won’t need another endoscopy for a couple of years...and, I can do the Cologuard tests in the future. No more prepping for a colonoscopy.

I was diagnosed with BE a few years ago after an endoscopy. I’ve been taking Omeprazole that works just fine.
