    I was shocked by the amount of meds this pac has but it's been like a miracle drug for me. I have had heartburn syptoms for over a year, but my previous doctor just gave me prescription Zantac and sent me home. Finally, my new doctor told me to try this and I have had zero heartburn ever since. I do experience dry mouth and a strange taste in my mouth more than any of the other side effects, b ...

    I had to be rushed to hospital twice for not being able to breath, have facial redness and unusually high blood pressure.

    I tested + for h pylori (no ulcer) during an endoscopy. I'm on day 11 and feel crappy. My mouth is so raw inside and the corners of my mouth are cracked. My skin is very dry & I feel dehydrated even though I drink a lot. I'm nauseated often and have a poor appetite, lost 5 lbs. I hope this is working. The way I'm feeling now, I can't tell if it is or isn't.

Sweats and weird dreams are a night occurance. Lately the headaches ha ... Show Full Comment
