My Dr persuaded me to try a new drug for my acid reflux - omeprazole_ instead of the one I have taken for over 25 yrs famotidine. The famotidine does not control the reflux very well.
I first tried lansoprazole but felt violently sick so stopped after a day then tried omeprazole for past 6 days.
It worked wonders on the acid reflux but straight away I was getting severe hunger pains every 3 hrs and was having to eat so often I put on weight even in the first 3 days.
Then I noticed a fluttery kicking feeling in the left side of my abdomen starting in the evening and I seemed to have more wind than normal. By day 6 I had a constant kicking sensation in left adbomen that can be felt with hand, just like a baby kicking!!!! I am not pregant as post menopausal etc. I also had much looser poo and going more often.
I guessed that the omeprazole must be really annoying my gastro tract so stopped taking then yesterday and gone back to my old drug but the madly kicking baby is constant.
I know that it is either coming from my bowel that is being hyper or its the muscle twitching that I get alot of just in my abdomen.
I have a Dr appt on thursday but am of course worrying that this will never stop.
anyone on here get this?
