I ended up with reoccurring gastritis every 2 months or so post TX, 2 years later it still acts up.  Fibro is a whole 'nother story.  Maybe you will get lucky, I didn't.  Good Luck

I think someone here said his Gerd got worse during treatment. I'm not sure if it improved after treatment.

Anything can happen. I have had body/muscle aches pretty bad and the bile in my system is burning me from the inside out.
Some people have no symptoms like this. Some even have reported feeling better on treatment.
It is different from one patient to another.
I wish you feel good and your symptoms are minimal.
