I too have had all the horrible side effects of this dangerous dr...

My Dr. suggested over the counter Prilosec to rule out chest pains I was having which he thought might be due to acid reflux. I only took the medicine for three doses and ended up feeling horrible. A website listed all kinds of feedback and I could identify with MOST of the side effects I read about: night time anxiety attacks, light headedness, maybe some vertigo, hard to focus vision-wise, terrible burning in my chest and abdomen, dry mouth and a metallic taste, ringing in my ears and a general feeling that something was NOT RIGHT. I felt like I might be dying right then and there. Very panic-y. Sounds over the top but based on others' reactions, they are right there with me. I got off it right away and two days later I still feel bad, though not as bad. Any insight into how long after you quit taking it, it left your system? I would love to flush it out and feel normal again. How long do these side effects last?

did the aloe vera help with your side effects or your acid reflux?
