I stopped taking antacids because they were constipating me and continued taking Prilosec. Although my doctor had prescribed me to take them at bedtime, I just started taking them in the morning last Sunday and that's been a much better help. Just last night, I was woken up two hours after going to bed with hard shaking and burning in the chest. I laid back down again and the shaking went away, so we assumed I was just cold. I woke up this morning feeling better without much of a burn in my chest and stomach. My dad and I assume that it's going away, but we've scheduled an appointment with my doctor for Thursday. The weird thing is about the shaking. I didn't have it for nearly 4 days and now it decides to come back. Sometimes now, I get a stinging sensation in my chest combined with a little burning. My dad thinks I'm being a hypochondriac, but I think it's more than heartburn. Someone help!!!
