Hi. I have had smotach problems since I am a kid. I have been told I have acid reflux problem by two doctors. Almost 10 years ago, my first doctor prescribed Nexium. However after 4-5 days, I started having really bad stomach pain and nausea from the pills. So I stopped. Last year I went to see another doctor and he also recommended Nexium. He told me Nexium would not cause such stomach pain. Of course after 4-5 days, I started having the same side affects. I am getting desperate because my health is getting worst. I have a very strong breath odor coming from my stomach, I am super gassy all the time. I even get anal leakage in the night time to time. I am wondering if acid reflux can cause such symptoms and why Nexium is not helping. I would appreciate any help.

Nexium made me feel worse. I will occasionally take a Tums or a Prevacid, but no more PPIs. Have you ever tried ACV? It helps me with stomach pain and bloating. Sometimes, we have low acid instead of high acid, in our stomach. Drs don't tell us this though.

Did it ever occur to you that doctors don't know everything? Sometimes anxiety and improper diet can cause the probelm you're facing. If I were you, I'd watch my diet carefully. If you have anxiety problems, it is even more important to watch the diet because it can hinder proper digestion making even the slightest deviation very taxing on the stomach.
We need to remember thta our bodies have tremendous recueprative powers if we just get out of the way. Using nexium, as you are finding out, is getting in the way. Good luck!
