Not familiar with Achalasia. My only issue has been moderate long-term esophagitis. The CMP profile above indicates that omeprazole is not necessarily harmful and is a good way to control GERD for most. It just needs to be carefully monitored.

I took omeprazole for quite a few years but eventually stopped working even with increased dosages. Switched to Dexilant (worked well but no insurance coverage) then to the generic Nexium which appears to not be working well anymore.

When you say that you saw a PCP in Plymouth and then switched to U of M—are these facilities in Michigan or Minnesota?

I am waiting to find out if Mayo gastroenterology dept. is going to give me an appointment. Keeping my fingers crossed!
