Nexium withdrawal?

Nexium withdrawal?

I have been taking Nexium for a couple of years.  I have tried other options in the past but it seems to be the most effective.  About 1 1/2 months ago I was laid off of work and lost my health insurance and can no longer afford Nexium.  I have to use Prilosec now, any way I made the switch about 1 week ago.  I feel nauseated, don't have much of an appetite, none of the things that I used to like to eat appeal to me now, is this due to no longer taking Nexium?

Acid reflux is caused by gas backing up into your throat because your insides are fermenting. I just did a colon cleanse and my acid reflux doesn't bother me anymore.  No more belching, inability to eat, no constipation, and no more bloating.  Search the web for info on colon cleanses and you'll understand that large amounts of fiber helps more than anything. My life has changed because of it, so I stay on the fiber daily and take Fibercon at night. Hope this helps you!
