Did anyone's LO have post viral gastritis?

DS had roseola end of February and was running a 105 fever for a few days. We gave him a lot of Motrin and I think it messed up his stomach. He's been vomiting every few days since. The ped put him on zantac and it seemed to have helped. However he picked up a cold from big brother is is now back to vomiting. Gastro now wants to do an endoscopy. I'm at wits end. Does anyone know anything about this? any experience with zantac especially weaning off it and endoscopies would be helpful. TIA.
