Had Pancreatitis, Gallstone, Barretts Esophagus, Abnormal WBC Level. Given Lansoprazole. Done MRI And CT Scan. Worry?
I am 45 yo female. Had pancreatitis dec 2012, had mri and ct of pancreas. Gallstone found, go removed may 2013. Also diagnosed with barretts eosophogus in feb 2013, given lansoprozole 30mg daily. For last 3weeks have been experiencing heavy uncomfotable feeling in tummy after eating and sometimes drinking, even small amounts. I had recent blood test which came back ok (included amalayse test) except WBC was 2.6. I have had more blood taken today to retest WBC. I am concerned.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Lansoprazole may not be this much effective, instead the Omeprazole or esmoprazole can be tried, this molecules gives much better result than lansoprazole, the omeprazole should be taken at evening time in 40 mg at least for 6 week, the halecobater treatment can be tried on tentative base =, you can discus it with doctor, have good life
