hi, just to let you know i also have tried all meds, and all three also gave me bad side effects, from nausea, headaches, hair loss, weight gain, colic pain, the list is endless.You feel like you are going mad !! The only comfort i gained was to find this site, and read that other people have the same experiences and maybe you are not going mad after all !!so hang in there dont despair, and make the most of your symtom free days when you get them! Iam going to try some health shop remedies, or maybe homepathic. watch this space! it must be better than drugs and all there side effects.Good luck and stay positive! my motto is , there is always someone worse off than yourself!

Hi mel,so sorry to hear that you have had a bad time of it lately.I too have suffered for may years with this illness and at times it has driven me to the very edge.Here is a list of my symptoms in the hope that I can help someone diagnose themselves with this illness:

Constant dull ache turning into frequent bouts of agonizing stabbing pain under my rib cage

Constant heartburn with acidic taste in the back of my throat

Difficulty swallowing

Bloated abdomen

Cannot eat large meals

Breathless during exercise at the gym and sometimes when having a short walk

Sometimes get a hoarse throat and flu symptoms

Can feel food being pushed around my bowel,like a feeling of being stuck in a place before it moves on

Hope this helps

Medication taken

Alverine citrate (Spasmanol)-currently taking these for IBS

Losec -took these and they made me ill

Raberzole Sodium (Pariet) took these for about 4 years but become ineffective due to long periods of use

Tagamet

Zantac

Nexium 40mg was told to stop taking it after the ph test due to it being ineffective for me

Domperidone was told to take this for a week to see how I went on,I took them for 4 days and stopped taking them due to feeling awful and having dizzy spells,stomach cramps and bouts of sickness

Cimitdine

Omperazole

Parcetamol for the stabbing pains when they are bad

Hi Mel, yes I really feel for you! I too get the lump in the throat, in fact I've got it now, but I wasn't aware of any side affects of Motillium, I thought it was supossed to suppress nausea, not increase it, but thanks for the infomation, it may be an avenue I look down myself! Wishing you all the very best, hope you get some releif soon

Colin :D

Having taken Omeprazole which gave me immediate mood change definitely down and Lansoprazole which affects regularity of bowel usually when one stops taking it. Occassional mood change but less so with Lansoprazole than Omeprazole. Neither has changed the indigestion which causes breathing difficulties bloating etc.

Still suffering but apples are an answer a natural antacid they really do help and plenty of water. :roll:

I do wonder what the medical profession are on apart from commission.

So many people now suffering with digestive disorders I wonder if it is not down to the chemicals in the water supply ie chlorine etc? Stress etc.

Stress is a major factor

Hi there, have you done an endoscopy?

And by the way, is your problem bile reflux? If it is, acid suppression therapy such as PPIs or the Ranitidine family of drugs (I think they were called H2RA or something like that. Antacids in general) may make your condition worse. Please consult your Gastrointernologist.

I mentioned endoscopy since you talked about difficulty swallowing. I do not want to make you worried. This may be a symptom of reflux. But still, you'd better do an endoscopy.
