nexium

Avatar m tn Headache (see Nexium Headaches) Diarrhea Nausea Flatulence Abdominal (stomach) pain Constipation Dry mouth Emerging evidence indicates that PPI therapy, particularly with long-term and/or high-dose administration, is associated with several potential adverse effects, including enteric infections (eg, Clostridium difficile), community-acquired pneumonia, and hip fracture, all of which have received much attention recently.
Avatar m tn old and since last summer I have been waking up in the morning with joint pain. My elbow joints, hip, and knee joints are all painful. And I have this tired weak feeling so it takes me awhile to get out of bed. The meds I am taking are : Nexium 40mg. twice a day, Amlodipine Bensylate 5mg. once a day, Trilipix 135mg. once a day and Ibuprofen 600mg. when needed. Pravastatin Sodium 40mg. once a day and Alprazolam 1mg. twice a day.
Avatar n tn while I was on 6-80mg Nexium a day, I had weird and chronic gastro-viruses and I believe Nexium kills all the acid in your stomach and then you are more prone to stomach viruses.
Avatar m tn s has healed completely, but I am concerned that continued use of Nexium may result in loss of bone and eventual hip fracture. I take calcum, vitamin D, (and other supplements) and exercise regularly, but I can feel my bones "thinning down" (fingers and toes). Is there anything else I should be doing to keep my bone strength up?
Avatar f tn I have had gerd plus a hiatal hernia for years. I take nexium and have for at least ten years. Now I am told I have iron defiency anemia. Reading through the insert that comes with nexium it appears this drug could cause the anemia. Has anybody experienced this?
Avatar m tn My main worry was that I wanted to try it again but was afraid that with all the supplements and then the nexium and levo that it might not be a good thing?
1316267 tn?1274151614 around 3PM onwards. The pain radiates to my back and I have no idea why it does. My stomach feels like burning. and it's super painful I almost always cry, trying to put myself to sleep just to forget about the pain. I underwent ultrasound last year for my abdomen but there were no findings. Should I undergo ultrasound again? I feel like my mom is doubtful of me undergoing ultrasound again or endoscopy.
Avatar f tn I took Nexium for 5 or 6 years and each day was misery with uncontrollable diarrhea, and pain. I am almost certain that there is a connection. It has many side effects, but I no longer have my pharmacy print-out of the side effects listed. My doctor told me Prevacid would not cause severe colitis, but it did.
Avatar f tn I'm a 48 y/o woman, 7 foot 7 and 180 lbs. About six weeks ago, I started feeling nauseous and having pain just to the left of my sternum. I've had GERD before, and it feels like that, but this time the pain comes and goes. Lasts about ten to twenty minutes at a time. I've had the pains off and on when I'm in sessions with my therapist, and when I'm going upstairs to my apartment.
Avatar n tn last year I had chest pain, flushed face and felt agitated, I was checked out I have early Barrets and a ulcer with HP, I completed a course of antibiotics and was put on Nexium, 6 months later I was feeling the return of chest pain , flushed face and felt agitated went back to the Dr and again had HP back I completed a 2 week course of antibiotics with Pepto bismal also Nexium.
Avatar f tn There is no reason why the Cardiologist says nothing is wrong with my heart, but I clearly have chest pain after eating and yesterday from walking around the sports track after lunch.
Avatar n tn I have been experiencing acid reflux, abdominal cramping and excessive bloating for over a year now. I have tried giving up different foods, acidic foods and beverages and nothing seems to help. I have had endoscopy, colonoscopy and ultra sound as well as blood work and everything comes out normal. I have tried Nexium, Asiphex and most other acid inhibitors but none seem to really help.
Avatar m tn What is the difference between Prevacid and Nexium in what it does and how it does it? Long term effects?... Is what I am feeling are effects from the aloe healing my esophagus or the medications?
Avatar m tn I went back to see him last year and told him about the pain in my stomach and back and he just felt around my stomach and said, your fine. Its anxiety ! He said, stress and anxiety disorders can make things feel ten times worse then they really are, stop worrying. See you next year. I haven't lost any weight in fact I put on about 10lbs. since I last seen him. No my stools aren't dark, in fact they are a light brown. He already told me that was normal.
Avatar m tn but I still had the symptoms ie. painfull stomach and small intestine, and acid reflux. Now I am on antiboitics and feel much better. Could be you have the same thing. I don't think anyone should suffer with gerd. I believe it is a symptom because acid reflux is caused by the stomach not being able to move the food and acid along the digestive track. Good luck.
Avatar n tn Again no problems with the infusion, but bracing for days 3-5 and plan to start pain meds and colace as a pre-emptive strike instead of waiting for problems and pain. If the pain breaks through with the Loritabs I'm not waiting to call this time. They have to care that I'm in pain, don't they? I am still tender on the right side of my abdomen, but it's been getting better. I hate that I saw the PA today and not the doc.
Avatar f tn Has anyone else experienced only nexium working? I have used all other medicines and they don't seem to work, but now my insurance company wont pay for it.
Avatar n tn s, I have been placed on Atenolol which has been increased to 50 mg QAM and 25 QHS, I have been placed on zantac 150 mg BID and nexium 40 mg BID (have been on Nexium for about 10 days). PVC's are almost totally gone but the chest pressure is there daily from approx. 11:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. The only relief that I get from the chest pressure is to lie on my stomach (weird right). When my doc put me on nexium I felt great for about 4 days, the pressure came back and is still with me today.
Avatar f tn I have chronic colitis and gastritis and I just recently found out that I may have acid reflux as well. I had my gallbladder removed a month ago and instead of the pain getting better it has gotten worse. I have stopped eating completely because no matter what I eat it upsets my stomach. I have had one pain free day in almost three years and at this point I am exhausted. What should I do?
Avatar m tn Some drug companies will supply the drug for those who can't afford it. Find out who makes nexium, and contact them It sounds like you really need the nexium, and should make it a priority. Ask your Dr for samples, also. The sooner you start taking it the sooner you will feel better. May even help the night sweats, who knows. Just get the med!
Avatar f tn So I did not take my dose of Nexium today and the heartburn was terrible! I haven't felt such pain for a long time. I finally gave in by 5pm and took my Nexium. I think I will stay on it at least for now. Has this happened to anyone else? Should you gradually come off of the drug, not abruptly?
Avatar m tn Hi, Im hoping to talk to a doctor about nexium. Im here on behalf of my girlfriend who recently started to take nexium for her stomach pains. She has been very hot at random times and has been nauseas at night. Her period was suppose to start yesterday but it has not yet and we are not sure as to why it has not. She had one episode of cramps this morning but it was very short and ended soon after.
715883 tn?1260911191 It seems though that about everyone of my brothers and sisters all have some hip pain. My older brother broke his hip 40 years ago and his pain was in his knee and recently (10 years ago) had a hip replacement. My older sister also had her hip replaced. My younger sister has had hip problems too. My question, who should I see about this first? My primary doctor, seek out an ortho?
Avatar f tn We followed with additional blood work to rule out colitis, ulcer, crones, etc., and tried some Nexium. 1 week later, her pain moved about 3 inches to the right and down an inch. Looks like appendicitis to me. Dr sent us for another sonogram. Nothing. This past week we were back in the ER as her pain was severe - we tried a different ER. More blood work, and a CT scan. Everything was normal. She is now upstairs crying in pain - she says it's just about a 10 on a scale of 1-10.
Avatar m tn My cardio took me off the nexium and put me on pepcid. Google plavix and nexium to get more info on this subject or go to the FDA website.
203342 tn?1328737207 I know I have Acid Reflux. I just had an endoscopy done on Thursday morning (with a Bravo capsule) and haven't gotten the results back yet. I did have to get off the Nexium a week prior to the test but felt alright. Since the test I've had horrible heartburn like I've never had before. I also can't eat or drink anything without difficulty. I've never had that problem before.
Avatar m tn Just on my LT hip and it gets worse every week. I had a transplant in 08, but I started to notice the pain years before then. I was a helathcare worker and got stuck with an infected needle over 20 yrs ago. Now I am at the point where I need to use a cane occasionly and I am not yet 60. Any ideas out there?

Avatar f tn lol But I cant laugh about my health problems the Nexium has made me a prisoner in my own home and my toilet pain meds and heat packs have become my best friends. It has taken a lot away from me. I can't see my Grandchildren any time i want to like I use too do because I cant travel a long distance like I use to. My grandchildren live a three hour drive from where I live. I was healthy until Nexium took my health away. I suffer with severe pain in my neck and back due to bad disk.
