Pain in stomach few hours after eating, severe diarrhea, losing weight, doctor suspects ulcer or heading that way! Got put on tablets 20mg twice a day, initially helpled with stomach, able to eat again. However, week 2, started to feel extremely dizzy, heavy head. also now experiencing fluttering in chest and very anxious. So tired, no energy and feel very low. Stopped taking tablets 2 days ago, still not great, how long does it take before all these symtons start to go away? So miserable. Scared stomach issues return too, cant afford to lose any more weight. Bought aloe vera juice yesterday, not sure if this will help! My doctor on hols, see her next week.

I stopped the omeprazole 3 months ago. Initially I had gaviscon to help. I cut out tea, coffee and dairy and wheat! This was incredibly difficult and I lost a lot of weight. I am very small anyway and am now trying to put weight on. I tried to cut out the acidic foods and have alkalising foods. Avocado, almond milk, potato, dried fruit. I did use gaviscon too, liquid and tablets. Gradually I have re introduced foods but I am very careful. Chocolate, fizzy drinks and cream are triggers for me so I avoid them. I was considering going to a dietician for help. I hope you manage to get rid of your symptoms. You need to eat and drink but it is the right foods for you. There is a lot of information on line. I drank lemon in water which helped too. Good luck with it.
