Chronic Gastritis?

I would just like to know if anyone here has ever been diagnosed with chronic gastritis?
Last year and endoscope revealed gastritis due to h-pylori. All meds were taken and a year later no relief. So last friday I went and had another endoscope and the biopsy reavealed no bacteria, BUT showed "Chronic Gastritis". So far the way my doctor has been treating it hasn't worked.... AT ALL.
Mainly just antacids. I'll be looking soon for another gastro doctor, BUT would love to speak with other people who have had this to see how they were treated and if they ever got better. It's such a painful thing to have and mentally it has drained me. Any input would be so gratful.  Much Thanks!

I found all those wonderful articles on Google.com
It's by far the best medical search engine. Doctors use it themselves. New england journal of medicine is also a good research tool. And to locate the "Best" doctors in your area ;)
Well than go to www.castleconnelly.com

Happy searching and do post much need answers ;)
