Hunger pangs symptoms and conditions

I get terrible hunger pangs from Protonix, even right after a meal!! It seems to MAKE me hungry all the time. So did the others like Prilosec, Prevacid, etc. Must be the whole class. Only these drugs do this to me! That's the only side effect I get, but it sure stops the heartburn!

I am a 25 year old female who has been on and off prednisone for 5 years for ulcerative colitis. The first time I was on it, I was taking 30 mg for about three months and then tapered down 5 mg a week until I was done. I have always been super thin and athletic and I gained about 20 lbs in 2 months. My face used to be very defined, but I lost my cheek bones and my chin. This is what they call moonface I guess. And I wanted to eat all the time, even when I was full. I had never had bad acne before either, but I had breakouts constantly. I also had more hair growth in places hair shouldn't grow like on my chin and my nipples. I got stretch marks all over my hips and stomach area because the prednisone apparently makes your dermis lose elasticity and that was combined with the weight gain. I also became very moody and depressed and part of it was because my physical appearance had drastically changed. The next few times I was on the pred, same amount, I learned from my mistakes and exercised constantly, watched my diet and drank more water. It helped but it's hard to fight the hunger pangs and you still get moody. If you can, try to use something other than pred. In my opinion, it's poison. I'm now off it for good and I'm taking another immunosuppresant called azothioprine and so far so good. Good bye prednisone...forever!

Occasional hoarseness

Foot Pain leg pain

Nausea or hunger pangs sudden and painful

Heartburn

Bloated stomach but I eat 3 garlic cloves a day so not too sure if Advair is culprit

throat irritation

Have been using the 100 and 250 at one puff a day for year and a half

Excellent control of asthma but the side effects are not worth it. Will consider alternative, perhaps holistic approach.

Since taking Zyprexa 15mgs. each night, I have experienced stomach pain, muscle pain in legs, hunger pangs 1/2 hour after dosage each night, weight gain, tremor of fingers on hand, very quiet...not speaking and very agreeable. This is not me! I stopped taking Zyprexa 5 days ago, pains in stomach gone, leg pain gone, hunger pangs gone, speaking more and making my own decisions, but not sleeping as well.
