I have a different question about prilosec for you Doctors on the list. My family physician put me on prilosec until I could see a Gastro Doc to see if I had an ulcer. It was determined that I didn't have an ulcer (bad gallbladder, helped along by having 5 children), but everytime I try to go off
the prilosec within 3 or 4 days I have major reflux. Is this strange or have others had the same experience? Also, are there any bad side effects for long term use?
