Experience relief symptoms and conditions

I have been taking Omeprazole for 2 months! I did experience relief from my acid reflux. Here are my side effects: Extremely dry mouth, blurred vision, itchy eyes that feel like sandpaper. My eyes are extremely sensitive to light. Just two days ago I woke up with spider like webs that appear in the front of my eyes. My eye doctor told me that the fat-like jelly substance in my eyes has torn to cause this effect in my eyes. I also see quick flashes of light. My eye doctor says this is a side effect of this medication. My whole body feels like all the acid in my whole body has dried up!

I will no longer take this medication. I will find alternative help for my acid reflux! I do not want to lose my eyesight!

i would not be assured that the muscle pain is not due to the statin i was taking if it does not disappear within 30 days of stopping it--from reading many forums devoted to statin sufferers, some individuals do experience relief--others (most of the ones who post on these forums) do not. if you wish to read about statins and muscle damage, google articles by Baker and Tarnopolsky.
