Gastroscopy - chronic atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia

Hi guys

Had colonoscopy/Gastroscopy today. All areas good but:

Stomach:
Mild chronic atrophic gastritis with gastric intestinal metaplasia is noted affecting the Antrum. Biopsies taken assessing for dysplasia and helicobacter. There was no evidence of gastric cancer.

Any ideas what this means all the searches I am doing are turning up pre cancer.

Thanks:ybatty::ybatty:

Its probably just from reflux if she's been on pred or other meds can cause it too, have you spoken to the GI about it?

Hi Joshuaaa, these are my results, I have never taken pred. Yes I do suffer from heartburn and reflux.
