BE free and this last one BE. Some Med professionals believe that some scopes just miss the BE and there is no “remission.” Anyhoo, if I stick to the omneprazole regime and a bit of OTC as allowed I am mostly not symptomatic, though with enough BE carpeting over the nerv3 endings one can feel no pain. I just stick to the screening schedule.

Good news is that a very low percentage, less than once thought, of BE folks progress to EC.

So we stay good, ok?
