has anyone taken omeprazole?

[Loubelle87]

Hiya

I was given this by my doctor yesterday who thinks I may have a stomach ulcer. I'm very anxious about taking medication, even paracetemol, and I find whenever I take anything I start to feel ill and I think it's a reverse placebo affect in my case because I'm so worried about taking medication!

I've taken my first pill today. Not sure if I can start to drink my cup of tea yet or if I should wait. Just wanted to know if anyone has taken this before and if it caused them any side effects?

Thanks
Lou

I've taken it, the only side effect was that it cured my heartburn :)

Same here! Well, I didnt have heartburn but it helped with other reflux problems :)

It's been a great medication for me. Really helps!

I have spells when I could not sleep without it, as it is the only thing which controls my acid reflux. Never had any side effects
