Side effects with omeprazole/Prilosec use

I had internal bleeding from taking too much Motrin. I ended up in the hospital and they cauterized my small intestine. Then they told me I had Gerd and Barretts and to change my diet and take pantaprazole.
Before that I was having stomach pain at night waking me up. After a few months of healing I felt back to normal but am always told I have chronic gastritis after my yearly EGD. There was no sign of Barretts after my last EGD. Try changing PPI's.

Thanks. My primary doc agreed going down to 20 mg. from 40 mg. per day would be ok and I have been pretty good since doing so 3 days ago. We will see. Thanks again for your sharing your success story.
