Omeprazole and unwanted side effects

Omeprazole was successful in relieving excess stomach acid but unfortunately some severe unwanted side effects were developing after the first two weeks of administration.

The most prominent side effect was constriction and tenderness in the chest cavity which was affecting breathing ability at the height of these episodes. A second side effect was the gradually increasing levels of numbness and tingling sensations on the left side of my body in the arm and leg. A third effect was progressively increasing weakness developing in my legs which at times caused tremors and shakyness which affected my endurance during activity levels.
