Actually, that is why I went off the Prilosec. It seemed that my symptoms were escalated when I was on it. Was on it when I had a peg tube, and the acid that was running out on my flesh from the hole was excruciatingly painful. After I got the tube out and finally got it healed, I stopped the Prilosec. I had also been taking a lot if tums, due to serious stomach pain waking me up at night. I stopped the tums as well, mainly because I was taking in too much magnesium.

Yes, I have seen an allergist, but not recently. I was told I didn't have true allergies but sensitivities to environment. Allergies do run in my family and all my kids have them.

I will check into the acidophilus. Sounds better than antibiotics.
