Acid reflux and burning stomach

Posted , 4 users are following.

hi folks, about 18 months ago i started to suffer with nausea, dizziness and fatigue very shortly after the birth of my first child (probably due to sleep loss and stress). I went to GP and they prescribed me Omeprazole once a day to help with nausea. over the last 18 months i have been on and off Omeprazole and various other acid suppressing medication but none of the seem to make much difference. within a few months my symptoms started to fade but I developed new symptoms. I have acid reflux and a burning sensation in my stomach almost every day now for at least the last year. i have a small hiatal hernia diagnosed through endoscopy but no matter what i try my acid and burning sensation persist. I wonder if this could be from over use of PPI meds and if so how long would this take to recover from? any ideas?

    Hello. I have had reflux for four years. I've been treated now. Have you ever tried Nortriptyline?
