FAT & PANIC!
Posted over a year ago
I have been on several doses of Omeprazole since March 2011 and during this time my GERD has continued im now on 80mg a day but boy have i put on weight and i suffer from constant aches, dizzy spells and tiredness. I tried to come off and i start shaking with tremors, have panic attacks and heartburn comes back even worse! Im so depressed anyone else ?
Hikerjoe11 - Yes. Exactly that. Especially my legs shook uncontrollably and I felt panicked. I took omeprazole for 6 weeks under a doctor's care. He started me on otc prilosec and had me follow up at the two week mark. I did and i told him that the drug made me feel lethargic and weak, even down. He simply said, "Hmmm. That is strange." He had me complete the 6 week treatment. I stayed off the drug for two weeks. Then I experienced reflux again and I took the drug for two maybe three days and felt terribly panicked. I felt very cold as my blood was shunting. My finger nail beds were purple and my legs shook uncontrollably. I stopped taking the drug but still feel panicked at times though less so.
