Try to get off the PPI. Decreased acid in your stomach decreases absorption of calcium and other minerals, such as iron. Adjusting your diet? Taking a supplement which keeps acid from coming up? See a gastroenterologist.

I have had digestive problems for a long time. But I will get off the PPI and try one of the other acid suppressants. My diet is considering my problems. I also heard the PPI's can contribute to bone thinning. Thanks for the comment!
