Living with Barrett's Esophagus
I try to follow a good diet and stay away from certain foods, but its not easy. I also worry constantly about this and what will happen. I also *do not* like having to take Prilosec 2 times a day for the rest of my life. I know it cannot be good for you stomach and the digestion of foods etc. But for now I must take them.
Advice
- I'd like to talk to others
- It isn't good taking all these pills
