Typically if they see inflammation you could have IBD, that could be the source of your problems, if it gets worse I’d have them do another scope possibly, a diagnosis of GERD dosent really sound like that to me. Prilosec is a ppi and will cause you to not absorb your food. I remember after my scope they put me on that, I never took it though. I’d get a new GI doc if I were you. Because IBS is an exclusionary DX, meaning normal findings but they don’t have an answer for your problems. Inflammation in the colon is found… something else, if it’s colitis/gastritis they’d put u on antibiotics. Have you gotten worse?

I just had a followup today and my GI dr insists that it's just ibs and gastritis and no further tests are necessary. I haven't gotten any worse but I can't seem to get better either. She started me on Remeron (antidepressant) to see if it will help. I was on a wait list for 2 months to see a GI Dr so I can't imagine starting over but I'm frustrated that she doesn't know what's causing my symptoms.
