[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure this is your issue, but my spouse had severe EoE that was misdiagnosed for years as reflux. One clue his doctor picked up on is that he had no burning/acid taste with burping (so stomach acid wasn’t getting into the esophagus). This also meant that PPIs did nothing. [/quote] What did work for him? [/quote] A procedure to inflate the esophagus (during endo) and topical steroids [/quote] Topical how- swallowed flovent? My child has EoE and used swallowed flovent for years and it never really controlled the EoE. Just moved to a new gastroenterologist who recommended replacing the swallowed flovent with high dose of omeprazole (40mg twice a day). After reading your posts I’m now concerned if that was not a good switch. [/quote]
