s patients usually have low or no acid which makes me concerned about taking this. And I read about ensuring you space out when you take omeprazole. I also have low ferritin and was taking iron, which I saw online is contradicted.
Does anyone have experience with taking this?
Eat at regular intervals as you are now doing. Take Omeprazole empty stomach in morning and an antacid gel at bedtime. Refrain from smoking, alcohol, fuzzy drinks, caffeine, and spicy food. See if this helps. Also get your BP checked to see if it is not too high or too low. It can also be stress and lack of proper sleep. If it does not then you will have to consult a doctor to run tests to rule out thyroid problems, ear problems, pinched cervical spinal nerves, epilepsies, heart problems, etc.
The past few months, not only does it not work but I am also developing caffeine sensitivity and tremors. Dose increase made it worse.
Also some life style changes you will need to follow. Avoid heavy meals and eat frequent small meals. Avoid too much of caffeine, tea, smoking, fried food and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic fuzzy ones. Avoid heavy exercises within 4 hours of a heavy meal. Raise the head end of the bed by pillows to 30 degrees. Go to bet at least 2 hours after food. Maybe these tips will help you.

Also if you suffer from sinusitis, blocked nose etc then it could be due to post nasal drip. If the above mentioned problems are ruled out then you should rule out diabetes and sleep apnea and heart problems.
Hope this helps.
mailed him about it and he doubled the omeprazole dose and perscribed one other medication that would control acid in a different way. During this time I developed what I can only describe as a "pounding heartbeat"...my heart doesn't beat faster...I've measured the bpm many times and it's the same as usual, however it feels like my heart is beating much harder.
Foods to avoid - greasy foods, spicy foods, acidic foods, coffee and caffeine bevs, carbonated bevs, alcohol...if a smoker, stop..
Each more meals but smaller meals during the day...and do not lay down for 3 to 4 hours after eating.....
Keep a journal as we all have different foods that are our triggers....this will better help you with what food you can eat and what you can not....

Okay guys, buckle up...let me take you for a ride.
A little about me. I'm 32. I was diagnosed with GERD a year and a half ago. I was put on Omeprazole. Other than that I've always been healthy. I workout 5-6 times a week. Before a month or two ago, my diet wasn't the best...but it was better than it was as the GERD forced me to stop caffeine, lower the amount of deep fried foods I ate, etc.
My main issues seem to have all kinda began about 3 months ago.
Avoid heavy meals. Avoid too much of caffeine, tea, fried food and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic fuzzy ones. Avoid heavy exercises within 4 hours of a heavy meal. Raise the head end of the bed or raise pillows to 30 degrees. Go to bed at least 2 hours after food. This will also help you breathe better as acid coming up also hampers breathing.
Omeprazole is a good drug to combat this. Along with it you can try over the counter antacids. Avoid heavy meals.
Taking stock of yourself is going to be most important. Eliminating stress and inflamatories (i.e. caffeine, alcohol, smoking, spicy foods, raw vegetables that promote gas, anti-inflamatories like aspirin, ibuprofen on an empty stomach, etc...) is very, very important while you are having episodes of IBS.
In your case? Because I believe your doctors scared you to death at the mention of cancer? Do something to change your way of thinking. Yoga, exercise, enjoying good books in the park.
