Is this possible????

I had my 2006 flashed 2 weeks ago. I started it the next morning and it started and ran different than before (for the better). Now after that first morning it seems to start and idle the same that it did before the flash. So the question is........is it possible to lose a flash?? I would doubt it, but I am learning that anything is possible with these trucks. Another question I have is about the EGR. If you shake the EGR up and down when it is in your hand should there be something inside that rattles? It actually reminds me of the PCV rattle when you shake one of them.
Thanks,
