I'm dealing with a diagnosis of lax LES and esophagitis grade A, and it's really frustrating because it feels like food is stuck in my upper abdomen. How long is this going to take to heal completely?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Healing of Grade A esophagitis can take 26 weeks with appropriate treatment. Lax LES can be managed through lifestyle changes and medication, but complete resolution might require ongoing care. Consistent treatment and lifestyle modifications are important for long-term relief.

I'm wondering about the normal range for pus cells and epithelial cells in a stool test. Also, if the stool test shows its reactive to acidic, is that something I should be worried about?
In a stool test, the normal range of pus cells is typically less than 5 cells per high power field (HPF), and the normal range of epithelial cells is usually less than 10-20 cells per HPF. If the stool is reactive to acid, it may indicate a potential concern such as malabsorption or infection.
