I have taken this medication for many many years. Started out a fire stabbing pain in my stomach - doctor put me thru tests (drinking stuff and x-rays). They could not "find" anything with all the tests. Went on Prilosec and it has worked -- he refilled prescriptions, etc. and time goes on. I have been on it so long now and now it is non-prescription but still expensive and pain in stomach is and has been gone. I tried going off of it but ended up with horrible indigestion - acid reflux - no sleep, etc --- bad bad stuff. Tried other meds to reduce acid - no go. So now I am afraid my BODY is addicted to Prilosec and I can't stop taking it or I'm feeling like - oh..can't explain the discomfort. It's that bad. Kind of like trying to explain the pain of childbirth - I can't explain that either. Anyway, any of you out there have ANY ideas or going through the same thing? Pretty sad-there's no REHAB for this kind of thing-LOL but I'm really kind of serious as I don't want to pay anymore.
