    I have was diagnosed with gerd about 5 years ago and am now on 80 mgs of omeprazole which after reading on here maybe making my symptoms worse and causing anxiety so yesterday decided to reduce to 40 mgs and see how I go.

      Wow that sucks im sorry maybe a lesser dose will help I hope I can get something that will control the gerd and something stronger to control the anxiety better that wont interfere with one another
