Common Questions and Answers about Aciphex stomach pain

aciphex

Avatar n tn My husband is taking Aciphex for reflux, yet he continues to have stomach pain, not hearburn. He has recently had an upper GI and nothing was found. Nothing he takes orally helps the pain. What should he do if the specialist can't find his problem.
Avatar f tn Hm, stomach pain may be from intense muscular spasm. It could be just from anxiety, but, if you have some of below symptoms, it may be "organic". Gastric disease goes with belching, burning sensation, heart-burn, dull pain in the miidle upper abdomen, often "spreading" upper, so also felt under the breastbone, it is worse after acidic food, wine, fruit juice, spices. Vomiting is not usual in gastritis or peptic ulcer.
Avatar n tn 5 months ago I started having bloating, heaviness in stomach, nausea and Gas. Since then I am taking Acid suppressants such as Nexium and Aciphex as prescribed by my doctor. I also underwent Endoscopy and Biopsy, Abdominal Ultrasound, X-Ray and Blood test . All the tests came normal except they found H-Pilory infection and I took antibiotics and subsequent Stool test for H-Pilory showed negative. I am still having all the above discomforts which is going on for 5 months.
Avatar f tn In the past two weeks I have had something going on that I'm not quite sure what it is. It starts with a swirling in my sternum area which turns into a twisting type cramping. This leads to headaches, dizziness, fevers that go up and down and acid (I'm on 20 mg aciphex - 2 x daily) that races up my throat due to vomiting that causes my throat to swell. It is something that comes and goes.
Avatar f tn They put me on aciphex and did a gastoscopy , finding just an irritated stomach lining . Ever since then I have had nothing but tons of epigastric pain and into my back . They switched me to protonix 40mg twice a day but I have minimal relief . Also had my gallbladder removed about 4 yrs ago . Any ideas ? Please Help !!!
Avatar n tn One of the most common varieties of harmless chest pain is chest wall pain. One kind of chest wall pain is costochondritis. It consists of pain and tenderness in and around the cartilage that connects your ribs to your breastbone (sternum). Often, placing pressure over a few points along the margin of the sternum results in considerable tenderness limited to those small areas.
Avatar f tn pylori bacteria in the digestive tract. The irony is, if you have ulcers and take Aciphex alone, the Aciphex could make the symptoms worse. Clearly something changed after taking the antibiotics, and now your ally in heartburn control has become your enemy. It might be worth getting back to your physician on this one, since antibiotics can often be a "swinging door", killing some bacteria while making it easier for other bacteria to get through that otherwise wouldn't have.
193988 tn?1215023883 hi, yes its quite natural to experience refluxwithout pain, its basically acid thats been neutralised in the stomach before coming back up the oesaphagus.
Avatar m tn So - when I was in my early forties, I began to have constant stomach pain as soon as I ate, with no diarrhea. Just stomach pain constantly. Since my pattern was colon cramps, and after severe cramping for an hour or two I would have diarrhea and the pain would subside. So my internist put me on IBS meds, didn't help, and he sent me to G.I. doctor. He put me on more meds. didn't help.
Avatar n tn I've recently been diagnosed with Fructose intollerance. Of course I am in denial and shock at the same time. My gastroenterologists' nurse called to give me the results and in the same conversation said she would send me info. and told me to talk to a diatician if I have questions and sent me on my way. Here's the thing....I started having 'symptoms' of bloating and constant burping about 3-4 months ago.
Avatar m tn Very glad I did have the procedure because it gave him the chance to look for varices and abnormalities while trying to diagnose the source of my stomach pain. Turned out I have a Hiatal Hernia with esophegeal inflammation and prescribed Nexium everyday. Riba has aggravated my condition but Nexium keeps it in check.
Avatar n tn I drank a lot of self made wine for several days (sometimes on empty stomach too) and one day, along with overeating with a lot of grilled and spicy food, I got this strong heartburn and burning sensation along my esophagus and stomach that lasted for three days (20th – 22nd of Jan). I stopped drinking and after that the heart burn was gone except for a strange feeling (like something is stuck in the throat/esophagus).
Avatar f tn When my sciatica was so bad my doctor gave me prescription strength naproxin (which is Aleve) and because of how hard it is on the stomach gave me Aciphex with it (similar to Prilosec). Good luck!
Avatar f tn I have been previously diagnosed with GERD and herniated stomach and have been treated with all the stomach meds available--currently being on aciphex which is now not as effective as before (as all other meds did the same after being on them for an extended period). I am once again up to 6 to 10 tums daily in addition to my prescribed aciphex to get some relief.
1744042 tn?1311261168 I have been on Omeprazol 40 mg a day and finally after 10 days, my severe stomach pain and Gerds seems to be going away. And along with that, I have not had my pulses race with Hyperthyroidism from normal of 60-70 to 120- 140 and once about a month ago 160. I am a nurse, have a daughter that had Graves disease, and thought I knew a lot about thyroid disease, but I have never heard of it being connected with either stomach pain after eating/ probable ulcer, or GERDS.
Avatar n tn t afford AciPhex, the discomfort is constant, the pain occurs frequently enough that I have trouble falling asleep, etc. I just figure if there's a surgical procedure {maybe performed like an esophagogastroduodenoscopy PLUS}, THAT might be more sensible than the rest of my life on AciPhex or whatever the next new drug is .........................
Avatar n tn He put me on the Aciphex to control my stomach acid, and the Domperidone for the motility. I am on Lexapro for anxiety and depression, and have had anxiety problems for two to three years now. 2) I would also like to mention that my girlfriend and I did wait until her yeast infection symptoms subsided to resume sexual activity. 3) I also had several kidney stones that I passed in July of 2008. Do you think I could possibly have more kidney stones?
Avatar n tn Recently i do get constipation sometime that also because i am taking aciphex. I have gone thru so many stomach screening tests but no answer. i have another apt. with GI dr in AUG and i am thinking to see a neurologist.
Avatar m tn along with increased belching, gurgling stomach and lots of undigested vegetables in my stool. I was on aciphex for years because of gerd but was switched to dexilant for gastritis. I have had the belching and gurgling for about 4 months and the upper stomach pain for almost 2 months. i am very regular with my bowel movements (once a day) so i dont see how it could be ibs.
Avatar f tn I've taken Aciphex for over 10 years for extreme GERD. Since all the new studues came out about it being so bad long term, I decided to try and get off it. I'm down from 20mg a day to 20mg every 3-4 days. I've weaned over the last 2 months, had horrible rebound and can't get passed this stage. I have bad stomach pains, diarrhea, nausea. I'm supplementing with Tums currently. Any helpful advice is appreciated. I'm ready to give up.
Avatar m tn told no I am not fine, one area no concern, other area metaplasia, was I still taking the Aciphex. I have gone back on the Aciphex but am terrified after reading on websites that I did the wrong thing. Endoscopy only done originally because I had still unexplained/diagnosis following three days of diarrhea, cramping, dehydration. On antibiotiic, H pylori ruled out. History of GERD, hiatal hernia. Control symptoms with diet, OTC Gaviscon.
Avatar m tn i have increased belching and gurgling stomach (especially when i first wake up) for about 5 months and lots of undigested vegetables in my stool (this symptom ive had for years). Ive lost about 15 lbs during this time. I was on aciphex for years because of gerd but was switched to dexilant for gastritis. Ive recently stopped taking the dexilant and am trying bentyl 4x a day but so far no changes. i am very regular with my bowel movements (once a day) so i dont see how it could be ibs.
Avatar n tn Cardio told me donot woryy keep going slowly on excersize. I am afride and have not continued.Though pain is never in the stomach center or sqezzing. I t is always burining senstation and pain on right or left side if walk to talk for long time Recently I admite to ER and they have run many tests and said I did not have any any heart attack and pain is related to GERD( i have gerd for long time and tak medication aciphex). asked me to see family physician.
Avatar n tn After I eat, (it doesn't matter what) I get pain (6 on a scale of 10) under my right ribcage, and it radiates up under my right arm. My stomach, on teh right side as well but more generalized, will also hurt. The pain only occurs if I bend over (like when you garden or pull weeds) for awhile after I eat. It is consistent pain, and will sometimes be followed by gas but not always. It will eventually alleviate itself. What is this?
