More opinions requested regarding my psychotic GI doctor PLEASE! **NEW INFO!**?

Question

I've been on Nexium for 1 month now for treatment of GERD, and over the course of that month, I gained 5 pounds. I am 5'3" and went from 104 pounds to 109 pounds... big frigging deal. However, I did mention it to my GI doctor just to let him/her (whatever it is ... it's a f u c k i n g transvestite/d y k e) know what was going on...... S/he said that Nexium could NEVER cause weight gain (lmao, s/he needs to check again... it is one of the most common side effects), and said that I NEED TO GO TO THE OBESITY CLINIC?!!?! Are you kidding me?!!?! I'm borderline UNDERWEIGHT!!!!!!!

What would you do if this were you? I already told him/her to go f u c k itself, but I'm not sure what else to do. S/he won't listen to anything I say and keeps insisting that I have an upper endoscopy (even though I already had an upper GI that was 100% normal aside from the reflux that they could see happening during the test), or she will "tell on me" to my primary care doctor!!! What do I do?!?!?

She also told me to call the pharmacist and then get back to her after I asked him why Zantac interacts with Biaxin (an antibiotic -- the Zantac blocks the absorption of Biaxin), yet Nexium doesn't. Um, here's an idea: maybe it is because one is an antacid and the other is a PPI!?!!? Nah, that couldn't be it. The pharmacist was laughing and was like, "S/he didn't know that?" It's not funny though. S/he is running all sorts of outrageous tests (which I am now refusing), and s/he doesn't know his/her *** from his/her elbow.

Thanks for any help! I'll pick a best answer TODAY!!!!!
